Ben , I agree there’s no need for clickbait thumbnails. Just tell the truth. Very annoying.

Nailed it!

And try to cover things at least a few months new. This was ridiculous old info and co tained nothing new

Yeah I won't be returning to this channel because of that clickbait

I skipped

the moon is grey....

@@AverageAlien no it isnt. It has an albedo the same as asphalt. My advice to you is don't comment on things you know nothing about it makes you sound really stupid....

@Dorian Anreiter Mars looks like Earth because this video was filmed in Arizona & as far as the Moon, we all know it is light grayish & made out of cheese. Where do you think we get Swiss cheese from. The Moon. It should be called Moon cheese.😏

What moon is dark brown?

@@Praxss I dunno, I used to call "brown" a "kind of grey but with a colour"

Ingenuity is showing off its Moxie

Well, it took a rocket flying into space to get to Mars, so, flying a drone on another planet should not be a big deal, so long as there is some form of atmosphere. The big deal to me is controlling it from here, on Terra firma. Flying one on the moon would be harder, but could still be done with small rocket motors..

Yes but Curiosity came first and does some excellent science as well. I helped design the Curiosity SpaceCraft's PCBA's as an Engineer working at JPL. During Apollo my father was an Engineer working at the Cape.

@@wmffmw1854 😮 WoooW ! Full respect to you, and your Dad👍

The aliens are still there living underground near the polar regions where there is the most water.

Who said it was the first time much has been hidden from the world.

I was just thinking this last night looking at the stars. Ive always been bummed out being alive now not knowing what the universe is about or if there is life, then i thought it really is good being here now instead of say 1000 years ago not even knowing what the stars are or whats even out there. With limited knowledge now its a interesting time to learn these things just as we go out into space for the first time.

@@ryanlaws6182 You say that but the nightsky was a lot richer 1000 years ago than it is today for several reasons.

@@ryanlaws6182 : It's probably NOT "the first time" we've gone out into space. Just the first time we've been told... And, "IF there is life"?? WE'RE here. Aren't WE life? You Actually think, that in a universe with BILLIONS of galaxies, each containing BILLIONS of stars like our own sun - that we're IT??? Its not even a question you should still be pondering 🤷‍♀️. Common sense alone, should've taken us Far Beyond that question by now. . . It is a given. We share this Immense Universe with countless inhabited worlds, in countless galaxies. We Are Not Alone - You're simply not thinking.

The outrageous coincidence that allow us, of all the generations in human history, to witness these amazing events is incredible. WE are the people who will get to be asked, "Were you alive when the first people landed on Mars?" As Simon Pegg didn't *actually* write , "“If you're sad today, just remember the world is over 4 billion years old and you somehow managed to exist at the same time as David Bowie.”

I guess with everything going on in the world stuff like this hits the back burner unless you go out looking for it

It has moved

I think they moved 3 feet

It’s called precision, all the scientists and engineers were constantly testing every moving/working part to ensure nothing goes wrong and completely ends the mission before it even starts

@@electedsphinx4086 oh, I get it. It just doesn't make for the most interesting news or videos so we haven't seen much media since the landing.

We were until u mentioned it, lol

You mean deepstate cabal theatrics to control the cattle slaves.

All of it caused by the governments..

Ah, yes, of course, how dare anyone enjoy anything. Thank you, Brandon MTB, I forgot for a moment that we're in the years following 2020, and that means we're supposed to all be depressed, hopeless, and overwhelmed by the doomers in the news media as ordinary issues that were going on before 2020 are consistently blown out of proportion to sound like world-ending events, where normal pandemics are suddenly the modern day bubonic plague, and petty conflicts between countries are now potential causes for WW3. I will return to my regular government scheduled resentment toward being alive like everyone else at once. Please forgive us all for temporarily defecting from the 2020 "hate life" protocol.

@@damir_van_kalaz uh oh somebody needs to get their booster.

Exactly. I knew all this for months.

There is an excellent video of Verasitum explaining that. Check it outz

@pyropulse lol why do you need to be so smug

A.I.

@@Wonderkid44 Because you're not very smart.

It's a toy.

How can you put your name on a rover?

@@4max4 Percy is just a nickname, short for Perseverance. Ingenuity is nicknamed Ginny. NASA’s staff are clearly nerds.

Shut up bot

They found nothing much, we found click bait. I assumed it would be click bait when i clicked on it, but i was hoping there would still be something interesting, but i was mostly disappointed. We have all heard about Mars rovers before, oh and now they have a drone, ok, so what did they find? Not important to the story apparently!

A piece of Turquoise or Malachite.

This video is an example of a video with a clickbait title..

It was nothing but click bait and didn't tell us anything we didn't already know.

I know alaska is beautiful

@@e2zbasketball288 So, you’re saying this is the Lunar landing conspiracy theory all over again? Is us never having sent anything to Mars now a thing? I need to look this **** up lol.

@@kessilrun6754 we both know that was filmed in phoenix

Top right hand corner buddy

It's a miracle because they are lying to us. Nasa has been caught in Iceland filming rover expeditions. I work in construction and batteries die at - 10 and it ruins them in some cases.

You actually believe this is on mars😂😂😂 wow so so dumb

That is called click bait which has the purpose of insulting your intelligence because the up-loader thinks we are all stupid and that is their way of letting us know it.

@@mystikmind2005 Thanks for the reply. This is the age of the scam.

@@jansugalski4856 I do not know which is sadder? That this is the age of the scam, or that this is the age of people that are so easily fooled?

@@mystikmind2005 Excellent point

@@jansugalski4856 My theory is that the 'nanny state' kind of deceives people into a way of thinking that big brother will look out for them. So their minds become dull and lazy under the protection of big brother. But the reality is that you cannot rely on big brother at all, it is a tough and wild world out there and people have to be on the ball to look out for themselves. And this doesn't just apply to scams and finance, it also applies to your health and well being, science, the food you buy, the products you use, the air you breathe. People are too assuming that the system/someone else is looking out for them and so their minds become dull towards those issues. This is the problem.

I noticed that as well. Normally the gearing would automatically turn them in opposite directions. The lack of gravity and the lack of atmosphere would I guess balance out and make it fly normally.

@@JayDee-xj9lu I don't know how these drones work, but I don't think there will be any direct gearing between the rotors, because they have to turn at different speeds in order to turn the drone - so they probably have two motors. Still, it looked funny when thewy both turned the same way!

You can also rely on an egg in these difficult times.

Good luck finding an actual answer for that question... I've seen numbers ranging from -70°C all the way to -153°C. Best answer I can give you is, cold, meat popsicle cold. 😂

@@johnmurkwater1064 yeah the temperature changes sometimes it one sometimes it's another, I think -100 was just splitting the difference

what we know for sure is that during the night it gets pretty chilly

same in serbian language

or great matrix

Orrrrr this is just on earth lol more likely

Their concerns are small compared to the vastness of the cosmos

Watch it completely first

Just an English translation of this comment written in Turkish, which I fully agree to: "Thanks! very informative .. I consider the project of the Ingenuity electrocopter to be unique, it was necessary to calculate the rarefied (= thinned) atmosphere, the lower gravity of Mars, the low temperature and radiation of the Sun, as well as the charging time of solar batteries, compactness and low weight when delivered to another planet .. Bravo! "

The sky crane was to lower the rover, which is quite heavy. The sky crane was made to support that weight, whereas the helicopter couldn't support much more than itself. So you couldn't use one module for both purposes.and whatever lowers the rover to the surface will be discarded, because there's not much other purpose for it. I don't know the logistics, but I imagine rocket fuel for the sky crane is probably much more energy-dense than batteries are, and therefore lighter.

Agree with all but the jettisonable parts. Do we really want to CONTINUE to leave garbage everywhere we go? We've already turned this planet into a large garbage dump. Let's not do that with any others? Maybe we could make them retrievable instead?

@@anthroariel Are you suggesting that we should collect everything we send, and blast off with it, using still more fuel (which would have to be transported from Earth, and which would make extra weight to take down to the planet's surface, making yet more requirements on the sky crane)? Then where wouild we send it to? Into orbit around the planet? Into orbit around something else? Bring it back to earth? - to put it where? Maybe yolu think we should bury it on Mars - using a digger and manipulator, no doubt, that would need to be taken there, with all the implications of that extra mass and no usefulness beyond "being tidy"? Get real! That's a lot less likely than getting people to take their beer cans with them when they leave the picnic area in the park - something that would require no more than a small effort. What you are suggesting involves (heavily) tax payers.

That wouldn't work because of the weight. Ingenuity had to be very light because Mars's atmosphere is only 1% of Earth's so the blades can't provide much lift.

it doesnt, he just acts like it does to make it feel more relatable to the viewers

Maybe learn so chemistry so you can learn why they are flammable to begin with. The basic idea is that H2 and O2 have too much energy so whenever they meet they like to combine into H2O which has less energy, and release the extra energy as heat. This is how all combustion works.

@@user-pk9qo1gd6r oxygen is not flammable, but it makes anything flammable burn better

Reads vedas from Hindu scriptures Your doubts will be gone

this stuff wouldn't be weird or confusing if you study chemistry

that small difference in gravity would barely make a time difference. only something like a blackhole has a enough gravity to affect time in ways that are clearly visible and not so insignificant that specialized tools that measure tiny nanoseconds are needed just to notice the distortion of time

"Shocking" is over-used by all media. No doubt the scientists and engineers were astonished and excited but I don't think they were ever "shocked". A shock would come if a fossil of something like a trilobite is found on Mars. Until then, astonished is as strong an adjective one needs.

It's a clickbait title, the channels probably been advised to use more of these to expand the viewership. I personally prefer the old titles, but understand why they've done it.

@@rowanlove1752 normally if you have a clickbait title, it at the very least has some semblance of said clickbait. This video just amounts to 'wait till the next one!' bad form, Astrum.

The shocking part was how long it's lasted, (spoilers) but it's still going. It was only meant to last a few flights at most.

I'd assume it's the cold. It's already -100 C at night in the temperate regions of Mars. Poles would be really, really cold. Maybe too cold to feasibly explore with current electronics.

There was a polar mission back in 1999. It was a lander not a rover and apparently crashed on descent.

No chance of going physically to Mars but through the cameras of the landers and rovers you can see it almost as if you were there. Even fly over the surface though the cameras on Ingenuity.

@@rais1953 why not?

@@elck3 Correction: Not much chance. Travel to Mars, if and when the transport is developed, will be difficult and expensive and just the journey in microgravity will take its toll on your body and brain before you suddenly find yourself back in semi-normal gravity again, having to carry more than 1/3rd of your normal body weight around with weakened muscles. Astronauts returning from the ISS need help with that. Conditions on the planet are much more hostile than the worst parts of the Antarctic on Earth, the air and the soil are toxic, the water when you melt the ice will probably need detoxifying, solar and cosmic radiation are at deadly levels, if you need medical treatment it's a couple of years before you can get home, apart from that it might be OK. Good luck!

“You need to compress it into a liquid…” Yeah, before it goes into the rocket, why do we need to rush turning it into a liquid beforehand? “…get it cold and keep it cold.” Mars is not a warm place. “You need an energy source…” As far from the Sun as Mars is, there are various ways in which solar power is a little easier on its surface (namely the lack of clouds unless it's dust storm season). Nuclear reactors are great too, especially since there’s no one there to complain if one malfunctions. “You may lose half as you make more just while it sits there venting.” I do not recall cylinders of oxygen gas needing to vent all that much. The shelf life for a cylinder of compressed oxygen is several years is it not?

And your background is….?
