Thanks for the reminder. I'll definitely tune in. Perseverance lands in 9 days. https://mars.nasa.gov/mars2020/ Good luck to China's lander, they will need it. Mars has a habit of gobbling up space craft intending to land and leaving the crumbs scattered about the surface. The so called 7 minutes of terror through the Martian thin atmosphere.
February 9, 20215 yr Author UAE`s Hope Orbiter self-guided into Mars orbit! It`s a great achievement for the UAE in it`s 50th anniversary. Wow!!!
February 9, 20215 yr The UAE mission is actually very important, but getting minimal coverage by the media. Its going to give us phenomenal data regarding the layers of the Martian atmosphere, and Martian weather. SpaxeX, NASA and anyone else who lands on Mars will require such data
