The Wright brothers needs a statue on Mars and no one would knock it down
Too heavy to take it. Rocket fuel is expensive junior.
@‘75 YBA Make it out of Mars rocks bruh
@Kyle McCormack Using their future 3d printer technologies!
If u believe this remember these ppl can make you see watever they want you to
So with the super thin atmosphere, how does a helicopter work without tearing itself apart from the necessary high rpm?
@ridingwithdavid They said around 2500 rpm for the mars helicopter. That’s still not very fast, not as fast as a regular drone rpm.
@ridingwithdavid there are helicopters that can absolutely fly over mt. Everest
@ternes35yolo Yes,fly over…but landing and taking off is the issue at extreme altitude.
Did you notice the rotor configuration 👍😉🤦♂️
@MPIronmanJC great answer and right on the money 👍
I’m all for space travel but with a purpose this is just a waste of billions of dollars I mean you can’t live on why bother with it Its inhospitable.. Set up a relay station for communications and then go someplace where there’s oxygen or some place that is beneficial im lost when it comes this subject. But it really looks like a waste of money
Because the Anunnaki told them to do it🤣😂
Well, there’s not many places out there that are more hospitable than mars. Gotta start somewhere if humans are ever gonna leave earth
@MPIronmanJC To be more precise, there are almost certainly millions of places out there more hospitable than Mars, but we aren’t going to get to any of those probably for millennia from now. So Mars is the best we’ve got for now.
@Dean Roddey true enough, I just meant in the context of where we can get to within the next few years.
If you’re lost at this subject, then you should be aware that this is definitely not a waste of money. There are various other plans NASA has under it’s sleeve that can’t be fulfilled due to budget constraints. This particular mission has objectives set to study a different world for potential human colonization.
Infeliz comparação. Os irmãos Wright levaram anos experimentando seu invento.
Não vejo muita possibilidade de erros para o Ingenuity. Desejo sucesso na primeira tentativa.
Jamais des présentations en français
1:17 Please, whatever you do, don’t drop it!
Bonjour du Québec! La terre est ronde, et on parle français!
That nod to the Wright Brothers was so cool
20 flat earthers still upset they haven’t received presents from Santa clause since they where 8.
Can u imagine in another 100 years if we don’t destroy our earth and life as we know it ?
Mars? Never met anyone from that state before.
Just dumb not to like this Some one has been in a lead line cave Way to long
It’s hard to take anyone serious that wears a mask
for real. it just a constant reminder how fucked life is these days.
Elon musk be like : wait for my helicopter to fly on Mars.
It will look for the Local Starbucks. That will be ‘history’!!
Wouldn’t it have to be 100x faster? Something ain’t adding ip
Nope, it’s not linear changes
Also Martian gravity is very less that of Earth
NASA this and NASA that, but NASA can’t consistently launch rockets, while SPACEX is eating their lunch.
Calm down bruh
SPACEX ain’t eating anyone’s
SPACEX is a launch provider not space agency
NASA and SpaceX are partners lol not adversaries. They’re literally working together on projects.
Let we should see the work of ingenuity helicopter on the surface of Mars planet.
