Perseverance: Νέες εντυπωσιακές εικόνες από τον πλανήτη Άρη

Ένα νέο βίντεο από την προσεδάφιση του Rover Perseverance στον πλανήτη Άρη έδωσε στη δημοσιότητα η NASA.

Το βίντεο των 25 δευτερολέπτων δημοσιεύθηκε στο twitter και οι κάμερες του Perseverance μας δείχνουν έναν κρατήρα του Άρη. Μάλιστα μπορεί κανείς να διακρίνει τις προσπάθειες που κάνει για να βρει ένα ασφαλές μέρος για να επιχειρήσει την προσγείωση ενώ είναι συνδεδεμένο με ένα ηχητικό αλεξίπτωτο.

You’re looking at the real deal images I used to make my pinpoint landing. This is how I quickly got my bearings and picked the safest target in the last three minutes before touchdown. How it works: https://t.co/Q1dBl8ZH8x pic.twitter.com/HK6uuKbLcQ

Επίσης μέσα στην εβδομάδα η NASA έδωσε και το πρώτο ηχητικό ντοκουμέντο από τον πλανήτη Άρη.

🔊 You’re listening to the first audio recordings of laser strikes on Mars. These rhythmic tapping sounds heard by the microphone on my SuperCam instrument have different intensities that can help my team figure out the structure of the rocks around me. https://t.co/nfWyOyfhNy

Welcome to “Máaz.”

My team is working with the Navajo Nation and @NNPrezNez, who are sharing their language to help us informally name features I’m exploring on Mars, like:

tsé łichíí (red rock)
yéigo (diligence)
séítah (amongst the sand)

I’ve continued driving to scout a spot where I’ll drop off the Mars Helicopter, if the area gets certified as a flight zone. So far, about 230 feet (70 meters) of wheel tracks behind me.

I’m on the move! Just took my first test drive on Mars, covering about 16 feet (5 meters). You’re looking at the very beginning of my wheel tracks. Many more to make. pic.twitter.com/7tFIwWFfJ4

Now that the team and I have achieved a series of “firsts” since my landing on the Red Planet, join a discussion on Friday, March 5, at 12:30 pm PT (3:30 pm ET/2030 UTC) focused on those big moments and get a look at what comes next as I start roving. https://t.co/XHWGLYRGw4 pic.twitter.com/O2gXzclXxb
