Sometimes I think that I can watch this video endlessly…I am so proud of NASA. Even though people may say that NASA had already landed a previous rover, it’s still an important event for me, and I hope for you. The next big event I’m waiting for is the test flight of Ingenuity. What do you think will it find something interesting on Mars?
I still think it’d be fun for a DCS map from Martian topography

I’ve always marveled at what the NASA engineers and scientists can do, but to me this is a waste of funds. Mars may have evolved like Earth with oceans of water, and possibly life. But something happened in the past and it’s dead now. Why spend the money there? Go to Arizona. It’s the same.
I would rather see the money spent on “finally” getting the James Webb Telescope on its way, or spending on propulsion technologies; FTL, or at least on a flux-capacitor.
I am happy for all of it: telescopes, rovers, probes, Moon, Mars, asteroids. Whatever we do that involves the successful application of new technology spaceward is pushing the ball forward.
