3 Months On Mars: Perseverance

In just 3 short months, the Perseverance rover has captured over 70,000 images, multiple audio recordings and more than 4 videos of the Mars helicopter in flight.

Strange noises, undisclosed family portraits and relics brought from Earth are just some of the things revealed over the first leg of this incredible mission.

This, is 3 Months on Mars.

18th February, 2021. The Perseverance rover makes history by recording it’s descent and landing.

A coded message is hidden in the colouring of the parachute, which reads the phrase: ‘Dare Mighty Things’.

The heat shield is released, giving us a clear view of the surface.

The landing is fully automated; the craft is now checking for the best spot to land.

The sky-crane manoeuvre is initiated.

The video footage you are watching is currently being transmitted to the rover through a cable, before the cable is cut and the descent stage flies away to crash land.

Watch the video to find out what happens to the Perseverance rover and Ingenuity helicopter after landing!

It is currently unknown what the rover will find during the next 3 months, but we will be here to document it. This video is the start of a special series following the Perseverance rover as it makes astounding new discoveries.

Be sure to check back in 3 months time for the next installment!

I just find this so fascinating... I mean, we've existed on our planet for millions of years, and we're alive at this EXACT moment to be able to experience this. Just think, lots of those rocks etc. have been sat up there the entire time. Amazing.

[ayazamikanz]

These high-definition photos are so unreal. It feels like you're just looking at some desert on Earth, it would never cross my mind that it is on Mars unless you told me! So beautiful.

[ethanetn]

the piece of the wright brothers plane being put on the heli is so cool. like imagine going back in time to tell them that part of their invention is on a different planet attached to something that was directly inspired by them

[Wadeerrzz]

Seeing mars to me is like glitching into a part of a game you're not supposed to see, like Mars and planets are just future dlc for our simulation

[TayoEXE]

The fact that we can actually record sounds on Mars is mindblowing. I know it has an atmosphere, but it's so bizarre. Things literally could sound different on Mars.

[JonathanLeonard-fsbv]

I don't know what it is about these rovers, but it brings me so much joy. They are direct representations of us! Of human kind. The tremendous effort and stress that went into a great project like this. And to see your creation live on, sustaining itself, I feel like a proud father and I have nothing to even do with this.

Our little "Perseverance" rover is really living up to its name. ❤ ❤ ❤

[HansMilling]

This will inspire a new generation of scientists, engineers and explorers. Getting such detailed images, and a drone flying on Mars is just amazing.

FINALLY someone made an overview on what Perseverance has achieved so far. Thank You ElderFox

[ArsLonga]

What a beautiful touch to take some of the fabric from the Wright Brothers' plane. Not only has it now flown on two planets, it's done it in two different types of atmospheres... it's also travelled through space... Those two brilliant men could never have imagined how far the fruit of their endeavours would travel, and where...!

Watching this video feels like we have directly gone to Mars... Thanks NASA 💞
Love From INDIA 🇮🇳

[woof]

finally, a step by step in slide show that explains how and what is going on, Thanks for sharing

[pubghighlights]

I love how perseverance is not alone with ingenuity as its neighbor on Mars.

[thomasp.crenshaw]

Thank you SO much for the wonderful information, presentation and narration. These videos have been so well presented and we are so grateful for the excellent communication. My sincere appreciation from Melbourne, Australia.

[PrimalsTrucking]

I cant help but smile and give everytime I see that helicopter fly by. It's like a child playing on a beach 🤣

[redneck]

I just can't get my head around the fact that this is another planet. The fact that we can land on and get pictures and sounds of huge planets, millions and millions of miles away. Crazy.

[GấUBông-yd-vz]

Perseverance is such a down to mars robot.

[manangandhi]

this is so incredible feat of engineering. I feel so lucky to be alive to have witness this live. Makes me wonder how people would have felt when we first landed on moon. I hope in my lifetime I get to experience the same when we first land on mars. Thank you to all the wonderful people at NASA for making it happen.

Ever think about how the statement "there's a planet entirely populated by robots" is a factually correct statement?
