Fat is a type of crazy Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Seeing a helicopter flying around on Mars is fun. What would be cool is if they find some ancient microbes somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andyfez Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Wondering how the Chinese one will do when it lands from orbit. I'm sure they delayed landing cos they knew the Americans would get all the attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NASA is also planning a similar mission to a Saturn moon, Titan, called Dragonfly, launching in 2027. Titan has a denser atmosphere so rotor rpm will be less but it is much colder than Mars and it rains methane. ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
statman78 Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 I find it fascinating. I hope I’m still around when people land on Mars. My nephew is really interested. He’s an aerospace engineering major now and has a summer internship with NASA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tao40 Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Pretty fascinating to follow, in terms of space travel and exploration, these are exciting times! I can hardly wait to see some of the photographs from the James Webb telescope, once it is launched & arrives at its orbit to start exploring the universe!

Popular Post GinBoy2 Posted April 29, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 29, 2021 I'm fascinated by it all. Incredible engineering and a tribute to the human spirit to explore. Apart from Perseverance which in itself is an incredible piece of technology, not withstanding the incredible delivery vehicle which is almost mind blowing. The two pieces of demonstration technology, Ingenuity the ability to fly on an alien world, and MOXIE, the ability to convert CO2 to O2 on Mars are the pieces of technology that fascinate me most 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha, I thought amusingly that now it's the Martian turn to file a UFO report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
