Experience seven minutes of terror strapped to the Perseverance Mars rover

- Last week’s pinpoint touchdown of NASA’s Mars Perseverance rover in Jezero Crater was historic for many reasons, chief among them the epochal nature of the mission’s task of seeking signs of ancient life-and caching relevant samples for eventual return to Earth. But even if the rover finds no evidence of Martian microbes during its operations, it will have still produced another spectacular “first” for the textbooks, which NASA officials unveiled today: An unprecedented look at the “seven minutes of terror” between Perseverance’s fiery plunge through the planet’s skies and its coming to rest on solid ground far below. This is the first-ever high-definition video of atmospheric entry, descent and landing upon another world.
Perseverance’s predecessor Curiosity recorded snippets of the final stages of its Mars landing in 2012 that resulted in a short stop-motion video, and in 2005 the Cassini mission’s Huygens lander beamed back images and telemetry data from its chilly descent to Saturn’s moon Titan that were later used to construct remarkable visualizations. And there is, of course, no shortage of lunar landing footage from the Apollo missions of yore. But never before has a spacecraft captured the entire sequence of an otherworldly landing in such lush detail. More than mere eye candy, this data could prove crucial for the design of future, more ambitious voyages to the Red Planet’s surface, which is considered to be one of the solar system’s most technically challenging landing destinations.

The visceral feeling that only recorded video can achieve. Glad they got as many simultaneously captured angles as humanly possible. Because of this video, Mars now FEELS real on top of all the cold empirically gathered scientific data.
We the people care about our boss trump ❤ God bless Jesus told you that Phillip out ❤
Imagine, after landing, a curious creature spoke "Mom! I think humans are real!"
Could their lock language be more perfect English!
One of the coolest things I've ever seen! Job well done to everyone involved in the project at NASA!
Incredible accomplishment for humankind
Wow, just amazing! So many people, so much work, so many things that could have gone wrong! Who needs science fiction when reality is even more fantastic.
But science fiction inspires reality (e.g. Star Trek).
@@timandersen8030 Why is the narrator speaking as if this is live
@@readingRoom100 Probably this channel is re-uploading a previously recorded live event.
@@timandersen8030 Oh I meant the radio signal delay between Earth and Mars of at least 4 minutes
@@readingRoom100 That's why they call it seven minutes of terror, because of the delay.
Amazing landing that was! Percey you BOSS ..... and NASAJPL too💙💙💙
Absolutely amazing
"tango delta". Because that is easier than just saying "touch down".
It might be more syllables, but it also sounds much cooler...
It's not the length, it's the clarity over microphones.
Nine times out of ten, "touch down" will sound like "blouch blouch", which isn't really ideal.
@@happyslapsgiving5421 I agree..
Manuel is correct. It's much less likely for it to be misunderstood. It's why as pilots we are required to learn and use the phonetic alphabet. Once learned it becomes second nature. Though admittedly it's only used for the benefit so those directly involved do not misunderstand.
@@diGritz1 i agree. This is also the reason why the NATO alphabet is being used by military personnel to communicate messages clearly
I have goosebumps!!
What a beautiful planet
That's freaking AWESOME!
Thank you, NASA.
"Ready to begin seeking signs of past life"
That was awesome.
Simply amazing
Chills. Boldly go!
NASA 2024!
Flat Earthers now: "Earth is flat!"
Flat Earthers/Martians in the future: "Mars is actually on the other side of the disc."
Wonderful!
That is so darn cool. Great job NASA.
These people are the very best of us
A comment I live by in my highly technical field: "You can have an amazing, flawless product tgat gathers all kinds of invaluable data but in the end of the, the dog and pony show / eye candy, is what gets you funding."
news on mars = we have found some sort of alien life made of metals...
I'm here boss ❤😊
Congratulations🎉🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
You STEM folks rock!
One day in the future, the creatures of Mars will be tearing down all their statues dedicated to Perseverance!
congrats
wanna join you
Eat your heart out, Galileo Galilei!
Pretty sure he would be happy about it.
@@happyslapsgiving5421 Yeah, but he's not here to party.
I didn't know you finally went metric. Welcome to the 18th century!
It´s the only scientific way of measuring... The american one is based off old english tales.
NASA has used the metric system since the failure of our rover. It's been the scientific standard for decades- where have you been?
@@rebekahreed4059 There was a failed joint Mars orbiter mission in 1998 where the Europeans were using metric and NASA was using gills and pecks. Is that the failed mission you’re referring to? (It wasn’t a rover.)
@@DougOfTheAntarctic either way, it's still been decades lol
@@rebekahreed4059 Here is a link to Mission Control for the Curiosity Landing - Non-metric. So using the metric system for this next rover is a recent change and my surprise at its use was reasonable:

glad to see that "NASA" finally found the red color button in their Hollywood studio!
Come on dude you're just a joke at this point
@@jeremydyar7566 I'm sorry "dude," but do I know you? You're name isn't familiar - so you don't know me. What gives you the right to call me a joke? I had an opinion about an "event." You're attacking a person with your comment. Think about it.
I'll tell you what's a joke - playing a fruity song on the piano with my dad! Take that!
@@zoolygreb7885 Come on , dude, you're still a joke at this point.
@@rustythecrown9317 Oh my gawd "dude", that is like the most original thing I have ever heard! How did you come up with that dude? You are absolutely brilliant - one of a kind genius! Dude, you should be working for NASA yourself - or maybe in the film studio where they filmed all this red stuff!!!
Do you want to read something really brilliant dude - when I read your name "rusty the clown" the only image I got was of a sad, decrepit looking clown, who embarrassingly, just "rusted" his pants all brown in back!
@@zoolygreb7885 ah yes the same old story. You're a:
>Depressed, middle aged overweight obese man
>Living in a majority white American suburban neighbourhood
>Best years behind you
>Nothing to do, your lack of education and mediocre job haven't given you many skills
>You subscribe to conspiracy groups because you feel like you need to do something, you wanna relate with others
>Can't do much else bc u barely have friends or skills
>Only capable of hopeless contrarianism and pseudo-science BS to feel good about yourself
>You start to believe, and u become even more bitter and unlikable than before
Now you tell me, *Sir*, how much of that did I get right?
TANGO DELTA
Who did that, Charles Mingus?
VALIMAI UPDATE
Feet, yards, and miles are the units we use in the US. I didn't realize there was foreign coverage of the event?
NASA uses metric so that things are slightly less complicated. And of course there was foreign coverage of the event.
Every single scientific organization on earth uses metric.
There is always that one person who has to complain...
Yes, the USA is backwards in many ways... but scientists are probably gonna use the more scientifically sensible metrics in the end, regardless of how silly their country is.
@@nineomite Silly countries land on Mars
😵😵🤡🤡
First view , like and comment
I came here to be awed by science.. Instead your comment has done the trick.
شنو هالكذب
Where are the Flat Marsians now???...Oh sorry, I mean the Flat Earthers???
Flat Earthers 2020...
Flat Marsians 2120...
LOL.
Technology: Get high quality recordings from mars, but audio encoding of that fucking VoIP or whatever it is is terrible, the commentary sounds like a telephone from the 40s
This would protect your brain if people held their cell phone on top of their head. If you hold a phone like I do pressed against my cheek, radiation from my phone can travel in a direct path toward my brain. Does this really help a lot?
You OK mate?
Real fake
how is that "terror"?
The people who made it were probably terrified during the landing process... empathy isn't a unique concept.
@@olorin4317 that's still far from terror lmao
@@JuliusUnique 7 minute drop with 11 minute delay. 2.4 BILLION dollars at stake, and everything resting on math neither of us can comprehend. Now do you understand?
@@nmbrs555 nope, they will not get killed or fined if the landing fails
@@JuliusUnique Got it... just here to troll. Have a great one!
NASA I love you ... dare Mighty things
