Helicopter technology check starts today, the first flight of the #helicopter will be tomorrow #CountdownToMars #Mars2020 If this works, it's a game changer in space science on other planets. The helicopter just has 1.4kg weight. The first #Mars helicopter is about to make a technology test. It would be the first time that humanity starts a remote vehicle on a planet #CountdownToMars #Mars2020 #Perseverance says hello from #Mars2020 #CountdownToMars#Perseverance says hello from #Mars2020 #CountdownToMars @NASAPersevere#Perseverance made #space#history. A strong #signal is sent by the rover Successful landing of #Perseverance of #Mars2020#CountdownToMars . Still sending signals to Mars reconnaissance orbiter. Landing engines started. Navigation runs well. 300m away from surface #Perseverance has radar contact to #Mars2020 surface Parachute successfully opened. #Perseverance confirmed it's orientation and navigates to it's landing site. 67 km away from #Mars2020 surface #CountdownToMars #Perseverance successful entered #Mars2020 atmosphere Mars reconnaissance orbiter recieves signals from #Perseverance as expected One minute away from #space#History @NASAPersevere #Perseverance #Mars2020 #CountdownToMars #Perseverance still sending healthy signals. Everything is good. #Perseverance is on go, all systems are running well. 15 degrees will be entry angle. The Mars reconnaissance orbiter will receive the life signals from @NASAPersevere after landing because Perseverance is not longer visible directly. Separation successful. #Perseverance software will wake up now to start the landing process. 9 minutes to go. All Systems are go. The vehicle and rover are ready for decent. #Perseverance separates from his vehicle in about 2 minutes. #Perseverance switched to keep alive tone signals until Landing on #Mars2020 We are About 20 minutes to go until entry of #Perseverance to the #Mars2020 atmosphere. Two Children just Teenagers have won and given the Name to #Perseverance They both want to get scientists and/or work in the space industry. It's very good to see that #youth can be so motivated for #spacescience We will follow them and hope they will make their way. Today's space #science inspires the #scientists of the future. Our #children are the future and #space is humanity's future. #Perseverance #PerseveranceRover The landing Team takes over and in the next 90 minutes #Perseverance will hopefully make a successful Landing on #Mars2020 The Children who want to get scientists today, will become the scientists working with the samples #Perseverance when they returned to #Earth. Mission is just the beginning of a big cooperation with @esa #ESA as ESA provides the space probe bringing back the samples of #Perseverance #Perseverance collects #Mars2020 rocks for future return to #Earth. The first time we could exactly know from where a rock of Mars came from. Mars rocks still on earth coming from asteroids and meteors. Samples returning from Perseverance will be very well protected. #Perseverance is 4 times faster than #Curiosity and can make 200 meters per day. #Jezero the probe is make of #Aluminum just better than #Curiosity 20 years ago the first space probe landed on #Mars. #Perseverance is the 5th #NASA mission. @NASAPersevere @NASA Signals to and from #Perseverance need around 11 minutes to arrive (one way). #Perseverance has a camera to see where it is and where it can land during landing process. This makes it possible that a landing is possible on a landing site like #Jezero Landing on #Mars2020 was allways difficult and #Perseverance will be on his own when he enters Mars atmosphere @NASAPersevere will investigate and analyze rocks on Mars that are older than 4 billion years. It's hope is to find out how #Mars looked like millions of years ago and if life was once on Mars. #CountdownToMars#Perseverance#PerseveranceRover live now in this Thread. #Mars2020 It's the most dangerous landing site in history of landing #spacecrafts on #Mars #mars2021 Perseverance has 50% more payload as #Curiosity landed on Mars. We covering the arrival and landing of @NASAPersevere #CountdownToMars #Perseverance #PerseveranceRover live now in this Thread.
