What Would Mars Look Like if an Astronaut Could Orbit the Planet? (Mars Report - Nov. 2023)
Ғылым және технология
NASA’s Mars Odyssey orbiter captured the first-ever views of Mars that showcase the curving horizon and layers of atmosphere, similar to what an astronaut sees of Earth from the International Space Station. While there are no astronauts yet at Mars, this view gives us a sense of what they might see: The series of panoramic images was taken from an altitude of about 250 miles (400 kilometers), the same altitude at which the space station flies above Earth. These new images, which capture gauzy layers of clouds and dust, will help scientists better understand the Martian atmosphere.
In this Mars Report, learn how engineers at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and Lockheed Martin Space, which built Odyssey, had to maneuver the spacecraft to capture these views. Odyssey Deputy Project Scientist Laura Kerber also breaks down the significance of the new images.
The 2001 Mars Odyssey mission is NASA’s longest operating spacecraft at Mars, marking 22 years in orbit in October 2023.

Mars odyssey is pretty underrated

No offense intended, but "underrated" has become a meaningless word due to its rampant overuse. 😐

What a lovely video. Excellent work Laura + odyssey team!
Congratz on the 100,000 orbits,wish it had been longer,was interested in the horizon view with the cloud layers.
Nice update and congrats on the mission longevity record. Wish JPL would work with the Mars Guy channel, he's been doing a great job but could use more direct resources and information
awesome good work jpl
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Everything is beautiful.
Laura Kerber did a great job of explaining the pictures taken of Mars by the Odyssey Orbiter! She has a delightful speaking voice and a real passion for the work she does! i’m always impressed by the people who work for NASA because I believe they are very dedicated & passionate about space exploration. This is a perfect example of how American Institutions such as NASA can accomplish great things!
Cool!! ❤️
Awesome...😎😎😎
Thanks 🤗
Not sure why she said "some of Mars' moons." Mars only has 2; Phobos and Deimos. Unless something has changed that I just don't know about...

nah, you just need to work on your listening comprehension skills
Nice work and report, lady astronaut
Nice photo shoot haha
Well, it would look like Mars with an astronaut orbiting it. That was a real easy one!
Wow
Good.
That sound of impact from the space ship at the end, not sure it would sound like that on a planet with more than 90 percent less atmosphere of earth. But ok, these are the rocket scientists.

I did that so many times already - in Disneyland. Way cheaper too.
If astronauts can be able to revolve the planet, that will become tiny in size or subdivided into parts.😊
In my mind, a moon is more than a captured asteroid as a planet is more than a Plutoid.
Nasa deserves defense-level budgets.

Then they better to be able to defend America too. Not sure the space program is in a position anymore to argue that they are bringing lots of useful things to the general public anymore, beyond pretty pictures.
A lot of the stuff she saying don’t make sense as far as rock mapping. You would think that it was already done already 😮

Where is Parkar solar prob no update this mission why

Because too many people can't spell "Parker," "probe," or use coherent punctuation. NASA doesn't produce content on demand. Also, you can find plenty of information on the subject - but you have to put a little effort into it. Best wishes from Vermont 🍁

It's very far from the sun right now, it will reach it's perihelion (Closest point in it's orbit) around the sun.

NASA Goddard oversees the Parker Solar Probe so look for updates on their channel. Here's what they have so far: www.youtube.com/@NASAGoddard/search?query=parker%20solar%20probe
Is this a question from NASA engineering kindy ? It would not change its appearance in anyway whatsoever. I thought engineers should know that already.
