The video shows the final minutes of last week’s descent, up to the point where the rover touches down on Mars’ surface. The rover is covered with cameras – including seven dedicated to recording the rover’s landing. More than 30GB of information has already been collected from the rover – along with 23,000 images as the vehicle descended.

this was a straight mission out of ksp pr sfs
Couldn't help but get emotional when I watched this. My old dad who loved the space program but that passed away in October of 1970, would have been amazed by it all. He watched all of the rocket launches and moon landings up until he died.
I love rewatching history being made.
Insane engineering. So many things that have to go exactly as planned. When I first learned about the Sky Crane before it had been tried thought it was too complicated. Too many things to go wrong. So glad was wrong about that. The images and information returned are incredible. However the getting it to the surface of Mars a near an equal achievement.
What is the communications delay between there and here?
Amazing
Imagine the one Elon Musk will send to the moon.

What a time to be alive!
❤❤❤❤❤
imagining the sleepless nights knowing they have to get it on their first try, no rehearsals
you know its real cause like a piece of foil dropping on a a potato, not some creative cg shot
So we can see jet blast when the probe lands on the surface of Mars but upon landing on the moon, we see The Lunar Modules made no blast craters or any sign of dust scatter!
…why is there no fire coming out of the engine nozzles of the Mars rover's transporting lander?
Just imagine what NASA could do with the money that we've wasted in Ukraine! We should have been promoting peace rather than war over there!
1:34 "Hope you have salad" 😂
I just came here because of notsalgia, cant believe its laready 3 years after that landing
I have great cell service at my house in West Texas but drive two miles south and literally have no cell service in 2024…this thing is over a 100 million miles away on Mars and service sounds great!! What are they using for cell towers up that way and why can’t we get 5g all over this 3rd rock from the sun?? 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤣🤣
If only Newton and Galileo could see this.
