our purpose as humans in one organization, devoid of paranoia or greed, just pure exploration and scientific pursuit of knowledge.

Only a few things we do besides science seems to make sense . Al thought they use science to hurt us too as big pherma

I could watch the cinematic images from space and planetary exploration for hours on end, i'm just a thinking cabbage after all.🙂 *Kudos to all the brainy types who make science discovery possible* And thanks for sharing some of it with us.👍

That's a really fabulous mission, you people are amazing 👏 👏👏👏👏❤️

Those blurry spots are alien fireflies posing for the camera. jk jk Just kidding, they are most likely light weight debris flung about by the surface winds caught in the still images used for that sequence. But I'm only guessing.

Probably dust. Look at the images where you can see the top of the rover. It's covered in surface dust that is carried by the winds on Mars.

It will all be custom designed software specifically made to work most efficiently with the various systems on board. Probably the only thing not specifically designed would be the operating system kernel which is probably a version of Linux.

like the ancient lake idea But i have always thought that the best way to get a best smart way to study Mars is to have a robot go to the edge of the Valles Marineris anchor the base robotic climber gently repelling have mile or two cable and study the layers drill get samples just imagine-would be like the Grand Canyon 3.5 billion years life

There was a time when knowledge was kept in the closet, THANK YOU science and to all those who make the effort to push knowledge freely. It has been criticized that education is so expensive and the rebuff was, " If you think education is expensive try the price of ignorance". This comment might as well have been made by big farma to the kid as he lay dying for the lack to pay for a single dose of insulin. Knowledge is not a commodity. It is a necessity. Closeting knowledge is no better than literacy being illegal. Sometimes I am really ashamed to be human. I really hope we get better at it. ~DreadfulBride

terrified maybe. Terraformed make it millenia.If we ever get the faintest idea of how to do that. Building a sizeable permanent scientific base make it a century (despite Elons "colonising Mars BS). I hope we see the first people on Mars in a small, temporary base in my lifetime. We haven't done either even on the Moon, where it is infinitely more easy to do than on MArs. If anybody pays the insane costs that would need with no commercial benefits. Even on earth, all attempts to simulate a partly independant habitat failed miserably. And i haven't seen out glorious leader and currently serving messiah Elon put any money/research in that. Building (maybe) a ship to get there (reliably in 2 year round trips!) is a good start. But nothing beyond that.

No doubt humans will travel to earth like planet by building a ship (ark) so large that humans on ship, that is built a way so it’s a pseudo planet able to sustain life for many generations.

Humans had been exploring the oceans of Earth for thousands of years, and only found active life in the deepest parts of the oceans in 1977. And, life on Earth is prolific. It is, or was, literally everywhere. On Mars, any potential signs of life would be from billions ago, and if the potential life on Mars was less prolific than it is/was on Earth, it could like looking for a very small needle in a very large haystack. Adjust your expectations to match reality.

@@EchoesDistant I don't agree with your anology of looking for a needle in the haystack. If that was the case, we should not be finding organic materials with latest rover missions which landed in very different locations on Mars. The question is, is it really that hard to analyse these findings and figure out their origin. Why did NASA send all those different instruments onboard then, if they can not confirm the origin without getting any samples back to Earth? My and I believe most other people's expactations were to get a simple answer now, not to wait for another decade for other missions which will be more complex to accomplish with no guarantee of success. That's why I find this announcement disappointing.

Just to add to your points, we're talking billions of years ago when Mars was geologically active, it was so long ago that a super advanced alien industrial civillization covering half the planet would've been completely hidden under subsiding tectonic plates and ground to dust leaving only a small layer of bio-molecules and mineral/rare-earth concentration as evidence. For perspective we do have 3 Billion year old fossils of cyanobacteria here but you don't find that everywhere, most "samples" have been destroyed by geological processes here too. What I'm hearing here is "We found a salty lake sandstone full of carbon rings and unless there is some very weird 'non-organic' process that would deposit this everwhere on that rock it is likely that it comes from the same process we find on earth: Life"

We always like to use metaphors when describing or measuring space exploration, but to be honest, what NASA has done so far is paltry. It’s pretty much a front organization for our real space command agencies. We have covert colonies on Mars now, we have since the late 1960’s. Nothing to do with Elon Musk; these are Department of Defense lifeboat Colony projects.

So dry these guys. Put me to sleep 😮

Just imagine how much better NASA will be when Elon Musk is given the keys. And the mummy Bill Nelson is back in his crypt

The Zen master says, “We'll see.” - Quote from “Charlie Wilson's War” Are you so sure that Elon’s approach is “UNIVERSALLY APPLICABLE” to all or even most NASA missions. My take on JPL’s approach to mission development and success would suggest a different approach than Elon. I think it is a bit too early to give up the keys to Elon.

​@@kennypool "Webb 10 billion over estimate 10 years behind schedule." - if you think that is a good argument then you've just not thought it through. Or you're just another glibertarian troll who is working out some anti-social behavior. First, you ignore that Musk can only do what he has done after building on the work of 60 years prior by not just the US government but other nations around the world. Secondly, JWST cost a lot of money because it is an attempt to do something that had not been done before. And it cost so much because *private contractors* needed to be paid. Profiteers like Musk exploit ideas/technology that have already been pioneered elsewhere, but re-purposed for profit. I doubt you have any experience doing real research, or even real development of cutting edge, pioneering engineering. Finally, if corporations were going to do something like the JWST on their own then they would have done it already. JWST only can exist when a nation is willing to spend its resources on basic research.
