    "In this exciting episode, we explore the latest updates on the Perseverance rover and Ingenuity helicopter. Watch as Perseverance makes significant progress through Hawksbill Gap, autonomously selects and analyzes rock targets, and drills its first core sample from the delta.
    Marvel at the bizarre rocks and debris that Perseverance encounters on Mars, including a snake-head-shaped rock and an unexpectedly persistent traveling companion-a rock stuck in its wheel for over 4 months!
    Join us as we uncover the mysteries of Martian wind and dust devils, and how they may help our little helicopter friend Ingenuity. Witness the stunning 2.5-billion-pixel panorama capturing the delta front, and experience the most detailed image taken on the Martian surface.
    Finally, discover the challenges that Perseverance faces as it collects core samples from the delta and deals with unexpected debris.

      That's like saying it's becoming more and more obvious that Michael Bay movies don't rhyme, or that the Superbowl half-time show contains very little archaeology.
      That's not what they're for, and most people don't give a shit. They just want to whinge about some stupid thing some politician said or did, find out who won at that sport they like, and learn which celebrity has the tightest vagina.
      This doesn't really belong on the news, anyways. People who are interested in stuff like this, really should know where to look for it. They always did in the past. The news isn't a science show. Einstein's theory of relativity was not in the newspapers, cus that's not what newspapers were for. The town crier never yelled out that the Earth is round, cus that's not what town Criers were for. Even in biblical times, scribes didn't waste parchments, copying and distributing texts stating that bird's blood does not, in fact, cure leprosy.
      Besides....TH-cam IS media. And it's the same website for everyone, so it's about as mainstream as it's possible to be.
      Not so long ago, you'd have to wait a couple years until someone made a documentary, or wait several years until someone wrote a book.

      They should've solved these problems by now if this was a real mission. Imagine all these years of spacecraft engineering and creating a wheel that looks like a trap for rocks. And why is there only one rock in there but not 20-30 little more pieces. Each of these few images really looks like a 3D render.
      Every photographer or a 3D artist with a few years in experience will laugh at these images.

      Not a single rover mission has actually made any true discoveries. They like to drum it up with a lot of talk, but in the end, they really haven't discovered a single thing about mars that we didn't already learn from satellites and telescopes. It's just a bunch of professional fields circle jerking themselves over rock identification. We could have literally saved all that money spent on mars missions and our understanding of the planet would be no different today than it was decades ago.

    Seeing the stratified rocks makes me think with some certainty that large bodies of water were once on Mars. I believe the rocks are soft because they are sedimentary rocks, formed when water was present in abundance. I'm sure these conclusions have been drawn by others long ago. But it's cool seeing it with my own eyes.

    • @ElderFoxDocumentaries
      @ElderFoxDocumentaries  ปีที่แล้ว +8

      It could potentially cause damage to the drill. The most likely reason they won't try is because the algorithm that controls the pressure of the drill will go haywire, applying more and more pressure as the rock moves away from the drill.

    • @wacho4xj
      @wacho4xj ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Think about it this way, if you were drilling a hole in something here on earth, using a handheld drill or a drill press; If the item you were drilling into was not held still by something like a vise, your hand, or it's own large mass. This would make it very difficult to drill an accurate hole, and would likely result in breakage of the drill bit, or worse the drill or yourself. The harder or more abrasive the material being drilled into is, the harder the tooling needs to be. Harder metals being generally more brittle, this increases the likelihood of breakage.
