Perseverance Rover’s Descent and Touchdown on Mars (Official NASA Video)
Vložit
- čas přidán 21. 02. 2021
- NASA's Mars 2020 Perseverance mission captured thrilling footage of its rover landing in Mars' Jezero Crater on Feb. 18, 2021. The real footage in this video was captured by several cameras that are part of the rover's entry, descent, and landing suite. The views include a camera looking down from the spacecraft's descent stage (a kind of rocket-powered jet pack that helps fly the rover to its landing site), a camera on the rover looking up at the descent stage, a camera on the top of the aeroshell (a capsule protecting the rover) looking up at that parachute, and a camera on the bottom of the rover looking down at the Martian surface.
The audio embedded in the video comes from the mission control call-outs during entry, descent, and landing.

Seeing HD video captured on another planet is a surreal experience.
Too hd
@@EduardoMartinez-fp6ib are you realy complaining that the video are in HD ?
@@EduardoMartinez-fp6ib no.
@@EduardoMartinez-fp6ib Technology, soon they might do a full 360° recording and we'll experience it in VR
Right?! I feel like I’m not supposed to be seeing this
Seeing the surface of another planet from hundreds of millions of miles away in motion is honestly incredible.
How do they control something 207 million miles away?
Its so incredible Cause its not true.
@@limyize Very slowly with radio signals, and this was preprogrammed. It took between 20-40min for the radio signals to reach Earth+ a few minutes for uploading and downloading so we never get it in real time
@@xWood4000 how are these radio signals reaching mars from earth?
@@limyize Space is very empty so there isn't much stopping you from shooting signals wherever you want and as far as you want.

As a kid I read tattered library books with black & white photos beamed back to Earth from probes. I never thought I would have an experience like this. It's space exploration made real in a visceral way. Well done, JPL.
I'm an old guy, been around since Mercury, and i"m glad an achievement like this still excites me.
That's a modern day, full color, 30 FPS recording of the surface of *another planet* and humans landing something on it. Insane.
just a bunch of rocks, earth looks way cooler. maybe theres a fossil of a worm but its probably gonna be from the same asteroid that started earth/organisms on earth anyways
And some idiots believe it was filmed in the Sahara desert.
Well.... Maybe is wasn't humans that landed on Mars, but a human made rover that landed on Mars...

Whenever I feel sad or just bad in general, I watch these type of videos, it makes me feel happy to be alive
And for the audio quality as some comments mentioned, I think it's better this way, it adds a really unique feeling to this phenomenal accomplishment
100%. The headphones/microphones are fine
Sometimes I go back to watch this just to feel something.
Me too !😂😂😂

I watch this, the Artemis 1 launch, the Saturn V launches, the Apollo landings, and the deployment of India’s lunar lander to feel happy.

Bruh, the camera quality from Mars is better than security camera quality back on Earth.
NASA has an entire building just to store recorded data, most security cams has a old HD in the back office room... hahaha
They are also using 20+ high tech cameras, so that might explain why they have better quality. Also the rover is HUGE, even the cameras are big. It looks like WALLE-E.
Bit more cost involved in the Mars rover. Premium package.
Ugh you know this rover cost 10 billion dollars right and that's not a video but actually 40 000 images.
They spent millions of dollars for that camera alone, so it has the best camera of course lol
Can't believe Im watching a CZcams video filmed on Mars. Thats awesome. Incredible.
Nothing special yet
@@Heretogasunu No, it is special. It's more than what you'll ever accomplish.
@@apmire why the vilification? Mad because I'm right about this being an act?

I keep seeing this video even after all this time and can't help but to tear up, what an impressive thing to accomplish.
Yeah, weird because I do too.
seeing an actual live video from another planet is mind blowing

Word,, like why didnt they show us this video when it was actually taking place though ??
@@WAVEZCLUB cause they take a bunch of pictures taken by the rover and put together to form the complete picture, only difference is now we got microphones on the rover, from images put together like a puzzle and sound, u get a video

@@Ggjgff882 We are not gonna live in mars wtf XD
If there will be a CZcams at that point.
To think that in 1903, we flew the first plane, and now we’re sending rovers and helicopters to Mars is crazy.
Ingenuity flys around on Mars carrying fabric from the Wright brother’s first plane.
The universe is 13.8 billion years old and the earth is 4.5 billion years old, and some how we managed to be on the first people to witness this. That is real crazy.
Just the fact we’re getting beamed direct footage of another planet entirely is incredible.
Not direct, it's a download relayed through multiple satellites (one around Mars, some around Earth), then remixed to include stuff from the JPL control center.
That's in Nevada lol
@@johndododoe1411 Ladies and Gents, we have a nerd.

Thank you to the amazing team of engineers that helped us reach this huge breakthrough. I don’t think they are appreciated enough!!
sad to see these guys are been fooled that we had something send to mars...
When’s I saw this I started crying. And when I heard about Percy’s mission I had the biggest smile on my face. It’s been one of my biggest dreams of mine to see a piece of mars and this rover is making it come true. Congratulations to you guys over at NASA and congrats to the JPL team! Again thank you for making one of my biggest dreams come true. Next stop is to send humans to mars!
This is the most expensive video on CZcams right now

That ending gave me chills, congrats everyone!
bruh you are literally everywhere XD, keep up the work on your channel!
They edited it a bit, but I like it. When they first called out Tango Delta the room was silent because they only meant the rover wheels touched down, but the landing wasn't over. Sky crane still had to detach & fly away. They called the landing about 10 seconds (felt like an eternity) after the TD call, then the room went nuts. Still I like this edit, chilly.
Just how many systems had to work to get it there. It a GIANT rocket, that threw it from one planet across the inky void of space to another planet. As it approached more and more hardware was used to slow it down, each part ejected, used up, thrown away. The precious cargo emerging from it's shell. Until eventually the eagle flapped it's wings and gently lowered Percy to the ground, then via the data cable, it asked Percy, are you stable? Is this ok? And Percy woke up and said, yes, this is fine. And the eagle said goodbye and flew away, discarded, to die.
Anyone want to compile a list of all the components that were needed to get to Mars? I'd be super interested.
@@luisestrada9496 the signs of past life not to. The previous rovers first found evidence that water had once existed on Mars and later discovered that there are still trace amounts present. Geological features have further revealed that not only was there once water, there was a lot of it. This is due to the presence of canyons that the rovers found to have been carved out by water. Since there was once a plentiful amount of water on its surface, this leaves many to speculate if early Mars also met the other conditions for life. Thus, the search for evidence of past life begins!
Hi Chef.. I'm seeing you everywhere 🤣
Finnaly a real Video of another planet and not just timelaps footage or pictures. incredible
No matter how many times I watch it, I keep crying.
Seeing an actual touchdown on another planet like that absolutely blew me away. This brought me actual tears of joy! Well done to all those who made this happen!
Check out the Japanese Hayabusa2 Probe landing on asteroid Ryugu if you haven't. Not as high quality as this but still pretty cool.
Unbelievable.
And when they turned on the HazCam, Bernie Sanders was sitting in his chair roughly 10 meters away from the rover.
Ya

@@mickscholl straight facts
People are cheap until it is a problem. Plenty of 4k security cameras out there.
Storage cost of video quality is your main issue.
Storing 24/7 video footage of HD or UHD security cameras would require either a massive databank or you would have to delete records after a certain period, which then defeats their purpose.
It acually made me cry. So much hard work behind it and to see it succed!

And I bet the first person to suggest a skycrane in a meeting twenty years ago was told, "Are you out of your mind?! NO, we're not doing that." :-D
