I never realised that Perseverance was so large, I always envisaged a large RC sized vehicle. That makes it even more impressive that NASA managed to land such a large vehicle so delicately.

Anthropomorphism Maybe? . But yeah i agree. It's super cute that they are best of buddies and go out exploring together. And Ingenuity is like the Crazy kid with a "Propeller Cap", 🙂🥰🤗😄

@@NigelDixon1952 I am right and i can spot a chain of gatekeeping channels like this one, from the concept smell....and it smells like human farming to me 😶😏
Such an amazing documentary, very well made, and I can appreciate all the work going into getting the Mars pictures, and editing it all. Thank you so very much for this most excellent update on Perseverance mission thus far.
First off, thanks for the excellent production of this video. The narrative and sequences of images are perfect. As a retired Engineer with over 30 years experience in the automotive industry, I am still amazed at the fact that we can place a series of very complex instruments on Mars, use them from an incredible distance and improve them over previous to work on their own if required. Just incredible on so MANY levels. :)
I agree, it's amazing what we have done. I'm still wondering why we have not been back to the moon tho. Knowing what we know, it's pretty sad to be honest. What haven't they told us and what is yet to be discovered
Yeah that fact makes me all the more sad about the state of the world war wise. Each and every country has amazing brilliant qualities! This earth could be Heaven for everyone. Could be... Space is what we need to stop with the war fighting all the time. The challenge is huge and humans are at thier best when challenged exactly like that.. If we didn't have wars and could all get along MUCH better globally, we'd have Moon AND Mars bases by now. Maybe even Moon and Mars BUSES... Its such a giant shame.... Hopefully one day Man and Woman will look at the Earth from the moonbase and wonder how we ever all stayed on that one single rock and fought over it so savagely....
Not me over here crying about these robots being buddies helping us do science in space. I just get so emotional?? Hundreds if not thousands of people have dedicated their lives to this kind of science, and to see it paying off for them, with these wonderful robots, it really gives me a faith in humanity that keeps being challenged by the troubles of today.
A great story, the "two partners" have almost acquired "personalities", like two friends on a great trip of exploration.. I really hope they can keep going because it seems they're a great team and have already done so much. It would be great to see them keep going. Between them and the scientists who designed, made and are monitoring and sending them on missions, this is a really great story..
There is a fictional BBC documentary called "Alien Planet" about a mission to explore a earth like planet called Darwin IV, using an orbiting mothership and three blimp drones ran by AI.
@@brianhiles8164 very cool. Imagine the World and our goals if Russia was a democracy. Imagine if China was also a democracy. The peace dividend would be Space exploration and discovery.
29:12 what's interesting about this rock is the fact that it's ablated. There's a lot of features that come through these pictures from Mars that reveal very interesting stories. Melted rocks, heated rocks, and these. Very cool.
Thank you for your video as the picture are so clear and I was able to see how complicated these machines are! Amazing as I’m now 73 and never dreamed to see the surface of Mars!
The landing video is truly one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. Watching from the rover as it descends, with the platform above hovering with its rockets and their transparent exhaust… absolutely incredible. JPL has always had crazy ideas for the landing sequence that we could all read about, like for Spirit and Opportunity with huge airbags and the last two rovers with sky cranes, but seeing it on video just makes it so much more impressive.
@roll yeah, airbag landing was on mars, they'd have probably melted too quickly on Venus Just swelled up into a sorta pyramid shape and bounced, then selectively deflated a few to orient it vertically
Thanks for the continuous time linear narrative and editing...most helpful in understanding the mission and putting the discoveries in context... Be well S.W.
Wait, let's back up a second. No, really. Mars. Rocks. Shocked scientists. Perseverance. Willis the Bouncer and The Knights Of Cydonia. Remember? It's all there, along with that killer soundtrack featuring Blue Oyster Cult, Sammy Hagar, Black Sabbath and Cheap Trick. The opening scene with the anthropoids waving their bones all over the place with Billy Thorpe's *Children Of The Sun* playing behind the action was especially awesome... Really. S.W.
"It took a month to clear a few tiny pebbles" For sure but the amazing thing that we cant forget is THEY WERE ABLE TO DO IT AT ALL. Helping a robot on another planet millions of miles away and they can complete such delicate procedures as removing tiny pebbles. Its absolutely astonishing that's even possible
Watching this episode makes me proud of humanity! To see what has been happening on Mars over the past two years with this mission, contrasted with what has happened on earth over that same time period, really showcases how intelligent we can be, as well as how destructive. When I think of all the people's lives and resources that were lost in Ukraine in such a senseless war it depresses me. Watching this video has restored my hope for mankind! Thank you for that!
The writing and narration of this video strikes a perfect balance of humanity and science: too many videos about the Mars rovers veer into "Disneyfication," insisting on treating the rovers as cute characters, rather than some of the most ingenious creations of engineering and science. Your videos are engaging and inspiring without being maudlin. Thank you!
This is the sort of story that would make a fabulous childrens book. As an audio book, with the smile you always have in your voice, Alex, you could narrate a kids audio book and really inspire their curiosity and interest in our neighbouring planet as well as in science and engineering as a whole. Perhaps even a series of books. I would've loved something like this as a child as it has the science element I loved as a kid as I watched the various challenges of the original series of Star Trek. Anyway, just an idea.
The fact we sent that car sized drone all the way to mars and used rockets to land it so gently is absolutely incredible, I’m super impressed with that. Now to think we also have a R/C helicopter that’s been flying around up there is mind blowing to me as well lol…🇺🇸
The craziest parts (at least for me) are that due to the signal delay because of the distances between Earth and Mars the landing on Mars AND the different flights of Ingenuity weren't remotely controlled. At the shortest distance between the two planets, light takes a full five minutes to cross between them meaning that you couldn't remotely control it. Everything would have to be manually planned out in scripts by programmers before being transmitted to the drone, and then the drone would carry out those instructions while also handling unexpected events (like possible air turbulence) with a similar kind of autonomous program that Endeavor would use when driving. It also made for the landing of Endeavor on Mars to be rather tense because NASA wouldn't be able to have any control if anything went wrong. It was all up to the programming and hardware that had been prepared back on Earth.
Seems like most of the problems suffered by Mars Landers and the helicopter could be fixed with a jet of compressed air. No doubt it would extend every single mission to be able to blow off the solar cells occasionally. It might have cleared the pebbles in the sample tube too. As an analytic tool it could determine how dusty a surface is before beginning to drill it. It would also clear dust off of samples so they are kept more pristine for analysis.
Доброго дня, це більше, ніж просто відео, ви вкладаєте в нього кохання та пристрасть! Відмінна робота! Дякую. Завжди вірте в себе і продовжуйте робити те, що любите, хай щастить!!💙💛
For what it’s worth, I encourage my daughter, son and any young person I come across to learn the sciences. The future is owned by Those who can learn to chase the truth. Inventing and becoming entranced by all the unknowns in any branch of Science is a wonderful way of to work without feeling like your working.
Epic effort putting all the mission elements in the correct roll-out order via video, which I found very enlightening and helpful. A great historical outcome has been graphically accomplished.
@@DarthVader20201 oh yeahhh, I’ve heard about that! And you just reminded me of my new favorite mission: the NASA-ESA mars sample return mission! They’ll bring home some of those rocks!
i always find myself having sympathy over machines since i was a child, you're storytelling awoken that emotion as a child i remember feeling bad for motorcycles when reved too much for too long
This video is so well done and deserves a lot more views. Phenomenal job with the research, photography, real and computer animation. This has become one of my favorite channels. I remember I used to try to keep up with the rover. But , as you explained, it is a painstakingly long process in between projects. So this was nice to watch each update and not have to wait, lol. Thank you for sharing this. It's so well put together
What an amazing mission. I applaud the brilliant scientists, engineers, and ground crew that has made this mission possible! I cannot wait to find out what they find within the samples when the retrieval mission brings the samples back home to us. This was a great video as usual one of your best yet in a long time! Thanks Alex for all the excellent quality content!!
As for bringing any samples back to Earth, I’d be very leery on that one, simply because what might be released when it ended up in a lab, thus contaminating earth with its chemical properties/components which in turn could potentially destroy all life on our own planet. If there was an ancient civilization consumed by warfare, destroying all life upon Mars with bio-technological weapons, what would you think it would do to our Earth? What I’m suggesting is nanotechnology which can destroy all biological life forms. Today’s society and technology is quite capable of accomplishing this task now, so what actually happened to Mars and its atmosphere, besides its environment and magnetic field? This should all be addressed firsthand, instead of trying to colonize Mars and putting people into a greater risk of extinction than what we are trying and currently doing to ourselves now. Our planet is filled with life, all unique in its own right, putting our planet’s future in danger from something which may be an unseen and coming back to us, puts this planet in grave danger with contamination from Mars. Even though it may be undetected, It’s a false premise to assume nothing harmful is on Mars. Another questionable possibility, since carbon dioxide emissions are present, where is it coming from? Our planet alone is balanced with species emitting carbon dioxide and plants producing oxygen for species needing the oxygen, including all life existing and balancing the other for its survival and existence. Since Mars still carries an atmosphere, the biggest question is what did actually happened to Mars and it’s environment? There are no clear answers nor facts to answer any of these questions, no matter how many robots or probes go up there, simply because they are not prepared or equipped to properly assess the data presented to them. They are machines, created by humanity, and errors are inevitable because of our ignorance into thinking we know everything, knowing more than we think we do or have an understanding of it. Even with our own knowledge of our ancestors and ancient civilizations, we have only limited understanding and knowledge from various sources, therefore mistakes are made because we lack the knowledge and insight of understanding, piecing together information which may be useful but also is incomplete or incorrect in our assumptions. Searching for underlying evidence, nor even life alone, is not the answer to any of these issues with Mars. Our Earth is a rare jewel and should be considered as such, for without our planet’s resources and quality of life on it, humanity cannot possibly believe it is better somewhere else, because IT IS NOT. Without our planet’s gift of life, we would cease to exist. At this moment in time, humanity is at its infancy in technological progress, playing with deadly toys, and slowly destroying itself with hatred and greed, a faraway cry from where it should be for space travel and exploration….NO real shielding from various cosmic radiation elements or debris from meteors or other objects in space, NO antigravity devices to lessen the chance of explosion or damages from landings or takeoffs from surface environments, including clothing to further protect people from various encounters with the unknowns. What exists now is NOT enough for the long haul of space travel, nor for the future exploration of other planets. Even though scientific research, at the present, it’s definitely a suicidal mission and a waste of human life. 🖖🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Exceptional coverage of Perseverance's travels and achievements, Alex. Thanks for all the hard work. You are a worthy commentator on a marvellous machine and its stoic little arial accomplice. Congrats! Fascinating! (subscribed)
It's amazing what this mission has accomplished thus far. Also, this is the best channel on UA-cam hands down. The thoroughness of content and production quality is top notch.
Your telling of the story of Perseverance was amazing. You must either have had training in public speaking or you are a spoken word poet. Your descriptions of the stowaway pebbles and then later the loss of Ingenuity were brilliant. I am grateful that you employed restraint and sensitivity in the telling of the narrative. The nature of our language coupled with our perception of objects having physical body experiences, as well as familial aspects in the interactions they deploy objects creates oportunities for hyperbole and over anthropomorphizing. Such a delivery leads to times when we hear a narrator deliver a hackneyed or stale description. But again, your restraint kept your narrative fresh and relevent to the reality of the situation. I greatly appreciated this because it allowed the slight times you did rely upon anthropomorphized descriptions, to do what they are intended to do, which is allow me the hearer to feel moved and experience the events in a distinctly human way. Thank you!
While I have 0 expectation that we will find any evidence of life, it's always amazing to hear about more advanced rovers we send out, and it's cool seeing the pictures they take. We don't need to find life in order to find valuable information after all.
When scientists talk about 'life', they're talking about simple or complex cells which can or could sustain themselves. They're not talking about life as we know it. 😏
God, I enjoyed that! Fabulous story-telling in word and image. Thank you! Of course the thanks go to all those who are responsible for the incredible images, including of course Perseverance's engineers ❤
pseudo science and reality based science have nothing to do with one another. This falls under Science Fiction. If you are under some mass psychosis delusion, then I suggest you start thinking harder and asking questions. NOT ingesting everything stuffed down your throat like some goose fattened patte feed.
Excellent update of Mars exploration by NASA's Perseverance and companion Ingenuity. Great story telling with understandable explanations and engaging narrative. Thank you!😎
Alex, you never cease to amaze me, leaving me awe-inspired… This piece just does it! I don’t know how you do these videos so well! I truly hope NASA appreciates you! Because I know I sure do! Keep up the great work! ❤
I just wanted to see the rocks. I clicked on the video but instead got a whole history on mankind's curiosity about space... I had to bail and STILL never got to see the rocks...
It crazy to think about how many people throughout time looked up at Mars in the night sky, wondering about what it was or how it got there and we pretty much just picked up a piece of it to hopefully bring back to our planet lol.
You hear about the guy who stole 8 million dollars worth of moon rocks to have sex on top of them with his girlfriend, contaminated them, and went to prison?
@@bryanergau6682Lucky for us getting samples from the Moon is MUCH easier than from Mars and takes less time. Dudes honestly a fucking G for that. First humans to fuck on another planets ground 😂
The way my heart stopped when Ingenuity stopped sending messages… PHEW!! Love that silly little robot.. I’ll probably cry when I hear about it breaking down 😢
It seems like there was a missed opportunity to warm the little helicopter at night by driving up to it and warming it with the radiators on the back of the larger rover. This would help conserve the batteries so they could charge up farther in the day. Other design ideas could be to vent the MOXI waste gasses though a minimal arm nozzle (with ion needle) to displace the accumulated dust when it moves into warming position. Another design idea would be to have a basic inductive or pogo-probe-type power transfer, like a Roomba dock or cell phone charger. Now that it's proven that little solar-powered helicopters are viable on Mars - with maintenance exceptions - it seems worthwhile to better incorporate its strengths into the main rover for keeping options available over a greatly extended and maximum-capability mission.
Maybe NASA is too macho to allow their drone to spoon for heat? More likely, they couldn’t risk damaging either device, a possibility far too great given their lack of experience with flying in that atmosphere. Your ambitious and worthwhile suggestion, however, gains viability with every flight. Future rovers might have small fleets of helicopter drones that return for warmth and power every night. The possibilities are deeply intriguing.
@@sfkeepay Yeah, it seems like if there are at least a couple helicopters, they could be fitted with a projecting horizontal dowel/rod, so it could be picked up simply (like a garbage dumpster) and carried behind the main rover for charging/warming, while another flies ahead and does scouting. Simply taking turns, like the fleet you are talking about, could greatly enhance capabilities. Especially where there's a mixture of solar panels and RTG power being used. The horizontal lifting beam (fitted with charging pads) would also make a great stereoscopic platform for high-quality/low-math mapping, and even make for a good shape for a dipole-type antenna for longer-range communication. In return for being carried, the propellers could act as cooling fans for the RTG, for moments of high power demand, or for when it starts to get old and needs to use the solar/batteries on its chopper to move to a new spot to act as a semi-stationary base. This concept would glide smoothly into a mobile refinery concept, where little solar dumptrucks pick up iron oxides with magnets and bring them back to the main crawler, which zaps the dust into construction bars (think Tinker Toys, Lincoln Logs, Leggo), while collecting the released gasses for MOXI V2. Depending on how strong the laser-fused materials are, they could potentially be processed into 3D printer material to form baskets, that contain the feromagnetic materials, and stacked as a temporary shelter structure, and also basic construction machine beams to save on shipping costs, since then it would just take a shipment of compact assemblies to be mounted to the in-situ structures/frameworks, to make the complete machines. Meanwhile, the stacked, fuzed crates of dirt make a great, warm garage for putting solar panels above the lowest dust storms, and making a great spot to store laboratory and construction projects that will need to follow at some point.
Great video! It's funny, we just watched one of mankind's most impressive endeavors, a truly magnificent voyage, yet my favorite part of the video was learning about the rover's pet rock.
Amazing, you're a wonderful story teller, and this has got to be one of the coolest and most incredible, words really fail me - we're extending beyond our home world, and there is a rover revving around MARS... I don't understand how the entire world isn't captured by this. You tell the tale so well, and make it endearing and engaging. Thank you ever so much for sharing your passion with us, also passionate people. LIVE LONG AND PROSPER X
I think if they were to put these solar panels on lever-systems that can tilt them, it would be much easier to get rid of dust, because then all one must do is tilt the solar panel to the side a moment, let the dust fall off, and turn it back. So long as it has power reserves, it's fine. Idk the logistics of it, but I'm not sure if they've even thought of that.
The dust on Mars is extremely fine and sticks to the surface by static charge. You can discover the difficulty by trying to remove the dust sticking to the fan of your PC.
Once around 3000 years ago earth and mars were in orbital resonance, earth year was 360 days and mars was closer. Then a close pass transferred a lot of momentum between them that slowed earth down by 5 days to the orbit and speed up mars increasing the diameter of its orbit,cooling it significantly. This is one of the reason a circle is 360 degrees among many other result of the 360 day year. Every near pass would cause high geological stress on both mars and earth, land tides and severe earthquakes has been recorded in writing from the time.
@@stephenwilliams9950 It has been a while sins I heard about it and I do not recall the source, it was in reference to or explanation of the "long day of Josua" describing the conquest of Babylon by Josua (in the bible). There was also citations from the Inca and the ancient Chinese and their historic records. It describes how the Earth stood still for a day making a normal day twice as long (and a extra long night for the other side of the planet). There were orbital mechanics and mathematics used in the explanation and it was a "theory" that fitted the records and a explanation for our 360 base for things like the degrees of a circle and other things. Sadly I do not have the reference material any longer, I´m sure it is some ware on line as it was way to plausible a explanation of the recorded events for a rational mind to dismiss out of hand. If you do find it I´d love a link for future reference my self.
If there was a satellite around Venus and one around Mercury, they could conceivably be used as a relay station to transmit data when Mars is in opposition to the Earth. Perhaps if one of them would have a direct line of sight to Mars and they have a line of sight to Earth, they could transmit the data. You could have the combo Mars -> Mercury -> Earth, Mars -> Venus -> Earth, Mars -> Venus -> Mercury -> Earth or Mars -> Mercury -> Venus -> Earth reducing the times of total communications blackout.
A trio of satellites in solar orbit (spaced 120 degrees apart) could also work, but they'd have to be huge, making their launch and placement very impractical. The distances involved are substantial, and transmitter power is limited. It takes a very large dish at the receiving end to read the signal.
Thank you so much for this well-rounded summary of Perseverance's first year! I had missed a lot of these details so I'm really glad you compiled everything together
Great video, but what actually were "The Rocks on Mars that Shocked Perseverance Scientists the Most"? Did I miss something? Also, no mention of the extra samples that are being cached on the martian surface in case collection needs to be done that way... are NASA still not decided how they are going to get the sample back to Earth?
I would really like to see new rovers going to find old ones and see exactly what there graves look like and or use ingenuity to clean off the solar panel and if they will come to life. and I think a winch would be really cool to do things like get spirit out. Having 2 rovers work together would be really cool. like how offroading works here on earth, always have another vehicle with so you don't get stranded
One day I will visit MARS to rescue all those lone soldiers who gave their life for finding Life on Mars. That's why I'm studying hard so I can accomplish My dream one day
@@australien6611 yes. Did you see the Martian movie where he searches for a old rover and power it up to communicate earth that and Intersteller inspired me to be space nerd.
It's just simply crazy to me that they could drill 100 different core samples on earth and never have one be as crumbly and no geologist on their team know that might happen on mars, with all the checks they have in place, you'd think the 101st is mandatory..
@@coreyzamprogno5510 He is a metrologist. Was there for 35 years. I was luck enough to be there to see everything from Mariner 1 & 2 on. Even got to go into the lab with Sojourner. All wow momeents in my life.
Ingenuity turned out to be the most intersting feature of the entire Perserverence mission. It's up there gathering core samples that will never be retrieved. Ingenuity will be followed by larger and more capable flying machines!
Why don’t they build a robotic way to clean the panels off we have always had issues with the dust im a auto tech but should we not have like a windshield washer system or compressed air to blow them off seems like a huge over site

No matter how many times I've seen this, it always impressed me... The science and technology utilised were credited to all involved.
The fact it can do something that it's not programmed to do is amazing and helpful to understanding what else this rover has in store 😄
The landing video is truly one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. Watching from the rover as it descends, with the platform above hovering with its rockets and their transparent exhaust… absolutely incredible. JPL has always had crazy ideas for the landing sequence that we could all read about, like for Spirit and Opportunity with huge airbags and the last two rovers with sky cranes, but seeing it on video just makes it so much more impressive.
@roll yeah, airbag landing was on mars, they'd have probably melted too quickly on Venus
Just swelled up into a sorta pyramid shape and bounced, then selectively deflated a few to orient it vertically
I seen a woman parallel park once with no damage caused now that was amazing
Just a shame the microphone onboard to record the landing didn't work.
Haven’t physically seen much have you. Or metaphysically for that matter.
@@tyrone6820 Great diss. I can't say I have seen much metaphysically no, but please enlighten the rubes with your erudition.
Thanks for the continuous time linear narrative and editing...most helpful in understanding the mission and putting the discoveries in context...
Be well
S.W.
What discoveries?
Wait, let's back up a second.
No, really. Mars. Rocks. Shocked scientists. Perseverance. Willis the Bouncer and The Knights Of Cydonia. Remember? It's all there, along with that killer soundtrack featuring Blue Oyster Cult, Sammy Hagar, Black Sabbath and Cheap Trick. The opening scene with the anthropoids waving their bones all over the place with Billy Thorpe's *Children Of The Sun* playing behind the action was especially awesome...
Really.

"It took a month to clear a few tiny pebbles"
For sure but the amazing thing that we cant forget is THEY WERE ABLE TO DO IT AT ALL.
Helping a robot on another planet millions of miles away and they can complete such delicate procedures as removing tiny pebbles.
Its absolutely astonishing that's even possible
Watching this episode makes me proud of humanity!
To see what has been happening on Mars over the past two years with this mission, contrasted with what has happened on earth over that same time period, really showcases how intelligent we can be, as well as how destructive.
When I think of all the people's lives and resources that were lost in Ukraine in such a senseless war it depresses me. Watching this video has restored my hope for mankind!
Thank you for that!
The writing and narration of this video strikes a perfect balance of humanity and science: too many videos about the Mars rovers veer into "Disneyfication," insisting on treating the rovers as cute characters, rather than some of the most ingenious creations of engineering and science. Your videos are engaging and inspiring without being maudlin. Thank you!
First time viewer.... content is fascinating, and your voice is just... hypnotizing? Seductive? Captivating? I dunno. I'm hooked. Thank you.
This is the sort of story that would make a fabulous childrens book. As an audio book, with the smile you always have in your voice, Alex, you could narrate a kids audio book and really inspire
their curiosity and interest in our neighbouring planet as well as in science and engineering as a whole. Perhaps even a series of books. I would've loved something like this as a child as it has the science element I loved as a kid as I watched the various challenges of the original series of Star Trek. Anyway, just an idea.
The fact we sent that car sized drone all the way to mars and used rockets to land it so gently is absolutely incredible, I’m super impressed with that. Now to think we also have a R/C helicopter that’s been flying around up there is mind blowing to me as well lol…🇺🇸
R/C Helicopter, that sounds like fun!

@@ia8018 you have no idea
The craziest parts (at least for me) are that due to the signal delay because of the distances between Earth and Mars the landing on Mars AND the different flights of Ingenuity weren't remotely controlled. At the shortest distance between the two planets, light takes a full five minutes to cross between them meaning that you couldn't remotely control it.
Everything would have to be manually planned out in scripts by programmers before being transmitted to the drone, and then the drone would carry out those instructions while also handling unexpected events (like possible air turbulence) with a similar kind of autonomous program that Endeavor would use when driving.
It also made for the landing of Endeavor on Mars to be rather tense because NASA wouldn't be able to have any control if anything went wrong. It was all up to the programming and hardware that had been prepared back on Earth.
Perseverance really needed a helipad 😂
Seems like most of the problems suffered by Mars Landers and the helicopter could be fixed with a jet of compressed air. No doubt it would extend every single mission to be able to blow off the solar cells occasionally. It might have cleared the pebbles in the sample tube too. As an analytic tool it could determine how dusty a surface is before beginning to drill it. It would also clear dust off of samples so they are kept more pristine for analysis.
I would imagine a can of compressed air would be kind of a pain in the ass to take into space, though.
Ah wait. You compress the air in the mars atmosphere.
Seems like a pretty simple solution. I wonder what the problems with it are that they decided not to use it. Maybe it's just too heavy
Compressing the thin atmosphere of mars would be a titanic waste of electricity.@@collinrottinghaus6480 @infragrayscale
Or how about having the Mars copter hover over the rover and blow the dust of the solar panels.
Your narration is amazing. It kept me interested in the whole 50 minutes of this video.
The scientific advancements in the past years are inspiring. From the a picture of a black hole, to making oxygen on Mars.

One small step

true and real
Such a dedicated channel lit up my passion for outer space again
For what it’s worth, I encourage my daughter, son and any young person I come across to learn the sciences. The future is owned by
Those who can learn to chase the truth. Inventing and becoming entranced by all the unknowns in any branch of Science is a wonderful way of to work without feeling like your working.
What your saying is making a lot of sense.
Epic effort putting all the mission elements in the correct roll-out order via video, which I found very enlightening and helpful. A great historical outcome has been graphically accomplished.
The MARS2020 mission is one of my favorite space missions of all time! I think the only thing that could top it now is a lunar base!
A Mars Base would be great ⭐️ 🌠
Home videos of our Mars vacation would be cool too
It later discovered rocks were water beds
@@DarthVader20201 oh yeahhh, I’ve heard about that! And you just reminded me of my new favorite mission: the NASA-ESA mars sample return mission! They’ll bring home some of those rocks!
If Mars sample return succeeds, mars 2020 will have been but the first step of the most epic remote robotic mission in human history so far.
i always find myself having sympathy over machines since i was a child, you're storytelling awoken that emotion
as a child i remember feeling bad for motorcycles when reved too much for too long
This video is so well done and deserves a lot more views. Phenomenal job with the research, photography, real and computer animation. This has become one of my favorite channels. I remember I used to try to keep up with the rover. But , as you explained, it is a painstakingly long process in between projects. So this was nice to watch each update and not have to wait, lol. Thank you for sharing this. It's so well put together
Oh yes!! 50 mins of pure bliss ✨
"Your videos always leave me in awe and eager to learn more about the mysteries of the universe. Thank you for fueling my curiosity.
"
What an amazing mission. I applaud the brilliant scientists, engineers, and ground crew that has made this mission possible! I cannot wait to find out what they find within the samples when the retrieval mission brings the samples back home to us.
This was a great video as usual one of your best yet in a long time! Thanks Alex for all the excellent quality content!!
bless you happy naïve people who believe anything as long as it's well edited. Gullible "seeing is believing".
Too bad they don't advise us what they've discovered.
As for bringing any samples back to Earth, I’d be very leery on that one, simply because what might be released when it ended up in a lab, thus contaminating earth with its chemical properties/components which in turn could potentially destroy all life on our own planet. If there was an ancient civilization consumed by warfare, destroying all life upon Mars with bio-technological weapons, what would you think it would do to our Earth? What I’m suggesting is nanotechnology which can destroy all biological life forms. Today’s society and technology is quite capable of accomplishing this task now, so what actually happened to Mars and its atmosphere, besides its environment and magnetic field? This should all be addressed firsthand, instead of trying to colonize Mars and putting people into a greater risk of extinction than what we are trying and currently doing to ourselves now. Our planet is filled with life, all unique in its own right, putting our planet’s future in danger from something which may be an unseen and coming back to us, puts this planet in grave danger with contamination from Mars. Even though it may be undetected, It’s a false premise to assume nothing harmful is on Mars. Another questionable possibility, since carbon dioxide emissions are present, where is it coming from? Our planet alone is balanced with species emitting carbon dioxide and plants producing oxygen for species needing the oxygen, including all life existing and balancing the other for its survival and existence. Since Mars still carries an atmosphere, the biggest question is what did actually happened to Mars and it’s environment? There are no clear answers nor facts to answer any of these questions, no matter how many robots or probes go up there, simply because they are not prepared or equipped to properly assess the data presented to them. They are machines, created by humanity, and errors are inevitable because of our ignorance into thinking we know everything, knowing more than we think we do or have an understanding of it. Even with our own knowledge of our ancestors and ancient civilizations, we have only limited understanding and knowledge from various sources, therefore mistakes are made because we lack the knowledge and insight of understanding, piecing together information which may be useful but also is incomplete or incorrect in our assumptions. Searching for underlying evidence, nor even life alone, is not the answer to any of these issues with Mars. Our Earth is a rare jewel and should be considered as such, for without our planet’s resources and quality of life on it, humanity cannot possibly believe it is better somewhere else, because IT IS NOT. Without our planet’s gift of life, we would cease to exist.
At this moment in time, humanity is at its infancy in technological progress, playing with deadly toys, and slowly destroying itself with hatred and greed, a faraway cry from where it should be for space travel and exploration….NO real shielding from various cosmic radiation elements or debris from meteors or other objects in space, NO antigravity devices to lessen the chance of explosion or damages from landings or takeoffs from surface environments, including clothing to further protect people from various encounters with the unknowns. What exists now is NOT enough for the long haul of space travel, nor for the future exploration of other planets. Even though scientific research, at the present, it’s definitely a suicidal mission and a waste of human life. 🖖🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Thank you Alex, well done as always. Keeping us abreast of science in the solar system.
Your telling of the story of Perseverance was amazing. You must either have had training in public speaking or you are a spoken word poet. Your descriptions of the stowaway pebbles and then later the loss of Ingenuity were brilliant. I am grateful that you employed restraint and sensitivity in the telling of the narrative. The nature of our language coupled with our perception of objects having physical body experiences, as well as familial aspects in the interactions they deploy objects creates oportunities for hyperbole and over anthropomorphizing. Such a delivery leads to times when we hear a narrator deliver a hackneyed or stale description. But again, your restraint kept your narrative fresh and relevent to the reality of the situation. I greatly appreciated this because it allowed the slight times you did rely upon anthropomorphized descriptions, to do what they are intended to do, which is allow me the hearer to feel moved and experience the events in a distinctly human way. Thank you!
While I have 0 expectation that we will find any evidence of life, it's always amazing to hear about more advanced rovers we send out, and it's cool seeing the pictures they take. We don't need to find life in order to find valuable information after all.
When scientists talk about 'life', they're talking about simple or complex cells which can or could sustain themselves. They're not talking about life as we know it. 😏
@@messrsandersonco5985 I do know what life is, I just have always had a bias against Mars.

pseudo science and reality based science have nothing to do with one another. This falls under Science Fiction.

A moment for ingenuity. What astounding technology! Fascinating. Thanks for that film.
The thing I've always found interesting about Mars is that it looks just like the deserts and mountain areas here back on Earth.
Because it is
Why is that so surprising?? Youd find most rocky planets would resemble earth, Venus is very similar to Earth in its size and composition.
Excellent update of Mars exploration by NASA's Perseverance and companion Ingenuity. Great story telling with understandable explanations and engaging narrative. Thank you!😎
What an incredible and inspiring video. Thank you so much for telling this beautiful story.
Alex, you never cease to amaze me, leaving me awe-inspired… This piece just does it! I don’t know how you do these videos so well! I truly hope NASA appreciates you! Because I know I sure do! Keep up the great work! ❤
Wonderfully thorough, lucid and organized presentation! Thanks so much. I hope I'm alive to learn what the cache tubes have collected.
I just wanted to see the rocks. I clicked on the video but instead got a whole history on mankind's curiosity about space... I had to bail and STILL never got to see the rocks...
This seems like a lovely presentation for a nearly a hour for sure, Worth the time to watch.
It crazy to think about how many people throughout time looked up at Mars in the night sky, wondering about what it was or how it got there and we pretty much just picked up a piece of it to hopefully bring back to our planet lol.
You hear about the guy who stole 8 million dollars worth of moon rocks to have sex on top of them with his girlfriend, contaminated them, and went to prison?
@@bryanergau6682Lucky for us getting samples from the Moon is MUCH easier than from Mars and takes less time. Dudes honestly a fucking G for that. First humans to fuck on another planets ground 😂
The way my heart stopped when Ingenuity stopped sending messages… PHEW!! Love that silly little robot.. I’ll probably cry when I hear about it breaking down 😢
That was beautifully done. Thanks Astrum!
It seems like there was a missed opportunity to warm the little helicopter at night by driving up to it and warming it with the radiators on the back of the larger rover. This would help conserve the batteries so they could charge up farther in the day.
Other design ideas could be to vent the MOXI waste gasses though a minimal arm nozzle (with ion needle) to displace the accumulated dust when it moves into warming position.
Another design idea would be to have a basic inductive or pogo-probe-type power transfer, like a Roomba dock or cell phone charger. Now that it's proven that little solar-powered helicopters are viable on Mars - with maintenance exceptions - it seems worthwhile to better incorporate its strengths into the main rover for keeping options available over a greatly extended and maximum-capability mission.
Maybe NASA is too macho to allow their drone to spoon for heat?
More likely, they couldn’t risk damaging either device, a possibility far too great given their lack of experience with flying in that atmosphere. Your ambitious and worthwhile suggestion, however, gains viability with every flight. Future rovers might have small fleets of helicopter drones that return for warmth and power every night. The possibilities are deeply intriguing.
@@sfkeepay Yeah, it seems like if there are at least a couple helicopters, they could be fitted with a projecting horizontal dowel/rod, so it could be picked up simply (like a garbage dumpster) and carried behind the main rover for charging/warming, while another flies ahead and does scouting. Simply taking turns, like the fleet you are talking about, could greatly enhance capabilities. Especially where there's a mixture of solar panels and RTG power being used. The horizontal lifting beam (fitted with charging pads) would also make a great stereoscopic platform for high-quality/low-math mapping, and even make for a good shape for a dipole-type antenna for longer-range communication. In return for being carried, the propellers could act as cooling fans for the RTG, for moments of high power demand, or for when it starts to get old and needs to use the solar/batteries on its chopper to move to a new spot to act as a semi-stationary base.
This concept would glide smoothly into a mobile refinery concept, where little solar dumptrucks pick up iron oxides with magnets and bring them back to the main crawler, which zaps the dust into construction bars (think Tinker Toys, Lincoln Logs, Leggo), while collecting the released gasses for MOXI V2.
Depending on how strong the laser-fused materials are, they could potentially be processed into 3D printer material to form baskets, that contain the feromagnetic materials, and stacked as a temporary shelter structure, and also basic construction machine beams to save on shipping costs, since then it would just take a shipment of compact assemblies to be mounted to the in-situ structures/frameworks, to make the complete machines. Meanwhile, the stacked, fuzed crates of dirt make a great, warm garage for putting solar panels above the lowest dust storms, and making a great spot to store laboratory and construction projects that will need to follow at some point.
Great video! It's funny, we just watched one of mankind's most impressive endeavors, a truly magnificent voyage, yet my favorite part of the video was learning about the rover's pet rock.
An extended duration video about Mars Perseverance from Astrum…? Thank you sir.
Amazing, you're a wonderful story teller, and this has got to be one of the coolest and most incredible, words really fail me - we're extending beyond our home world, and there is a rover revving around MARS... I don't understand how the entire world isn't captured by this. You tell the tale so well, and make it endearing and engaging.

Simply magnificent, congratulations on the content.
A absolutely fascinating documentary. Well put together and edited. Strange that some people were not happy.
NASA employees?
This is a technological marvel and a tiny helicopter on Mars very impressive feat of engineering.
I think if they were to put these solar panels on lever-systems that can tilt them, it would be much easier to get rid of dust, because then all one must do is tilt the solar panel to the side a moment, let the dust fall off, and turn it back. So long as it has power reserves, it's fine. Idk the logistics of it, but I'm not sure if they've even thought of that.
The dust on Mars is extremely fine and sticks to the surface by static charge. You can discover the difficulty by trying to remove the dust sticking to the fan of your PC.
Once around 3000 years ago earth and mars were in orbital resonance, earth year was 360 days and mars was closer. Then a close pass transferred a lot of momentum between them that slowed earth down by 5 days to the orbit and speed up mars increasing the diameter of its orbit,cooling it significantly. This is one of the reason a circle is 360 degrees among many other result of the 360 day year. Every near pass would cause high geological stress on both mars and earth, land tides and severe earthquakes has been recorded in writing from the time.
Could you possibly give a citation for this please? Sounds interesting.
@@stephenwilliams9950 It has been a while sins I heard about it and I do not recall the source, it was in reference to or explanation of the "long day of Josua" describing the conquest of Babylon by Josua (in the bible). There was also citations from the Inca and the ancient Chinese and their historic records. It describes how the Earth stood still for a day making a normal day twice as long (and a extra long night for the other side of the planet). There were orbital mechanics and mathematics used in the explanation and it was a "theory" that fitted the records and a explanation for our 360 base for things like the degrees of a circle and other things. Sadly I do not have the reference material any longer, I´m sure it is some ware on line as it was way to plausible a explanation of the recorded events for a rational mind to dismiss out of hand. If you do find it I´d love a link for future reference my self.
My thoughts had gone to the Joshua "sun standing still" too as I read your post. Thanks for a swift and good reply. :-)@@agw5425
a minute of silence for ingenuity :(
If there was a satellite around Venus and one around Mercury, they could conceivably be used as a relay station to transmit data when Mars is in opposition to the Earth. Perhaps if one of them would have a direct line of sight to Mars and they have a line of sight to Earth, they could transmit the data. You could have the combo Mars -> Mercury -> Earth, Mars -> Venus -> Earth, Mars -> Venus -> Mercury -> Earth or Mars -> Mercury -> Venus -> Earth reducing the times of total communications blackout.
A trio of satellites in solar orbit (spaced 120 degrees apart) could also work, but they'd have to be huge, making their launch and placement very impractical.
The distances involved are substantial, and transmitter power is limited. It takes a very large dish at the receiving end to read the signal.
You have any idea how much money that would cost and how unbelievably complex that would be?
Wow I had no idea it could do so many things,it's an incredible project and it's fantastic how well it worked out.
Thank you so much for this well-rounded summary of Perseverance's first year! I had missed a lot of these details so I'm really glad you compiled everything together
Great video, but what actually were "The Rocks on Mars that Shocked Perseverance Scientists the Most"? Did I miss something?
Also, no mention of the extra samples that are being cached on the martian surface in case collection needs to be done that way... are NASA still not decided how they are going to get the sample back to Earth?
Click bait title makes me sad.
I would really like to see new rovers going to find old ones and see exactly what there graves look like and or use ingenuity to clean off the solar panel and if they will come to life. and I think a winch would be really cool to do things like get spirit out. Having 2 rovers work together would be really cool. like how offroading works here on earth, always have another vehicle with so you don't get stranded
Could someone please summarize this for me? It's 1 AM right now and I don't feel like watching a whole hour video.

Ingenuity turned out to be the most intersting feature of the entire Perserverence mission. It's up there gathering core samples that will never be retrieved. Ingenuity will be followed by larger and more capable flying machines!
Why don’t they build a robotic way to clean the panels off we have always had issues with the dust im a auto tech but should we not have like a windshield washer system or compressed air to blow them off seems like a huge over site
