If all goes well, there is a little helicopter on board that will see how it is to fly through the Martian air! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Riot Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 I was watching on my iPhone and my wife called as the chute deployed. Kind of put a twist on me marveling that I was sitting in my living room watching events transpire on another planet on my personal electronic device and getting a phone call on that same device. She apologized for interrupting and offered to call back later. I told her not to worry about it and that I would rather talk to her. I did get to see the first photos transmitted a bit later on.

Utah Bob #35998 Posted February 19, 2021 Author Share Posted February 19, 2021 First time we’ll see a birds eye view of the landscape instead of a ground level rover, if the drone works. This is great! The martians are gonna find it a lot harder to hide now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
