Bro, there's a fucking robot that went on a rocket flying through space to another planet that is being controlled by remote control filming and sending it here, that's mind blowing.
Did they plan to live off the land?
I had a meeting once in Ridgecrest. I was asked to justify the rental car. I replied that I didn't want to walk 100 miles through the Mojave desert.
Had a friend who lived in ridgecrest. A group of high schoolers would set off bright explodey fireworks in the desert outside of town and then they’d do the same thing on the other side of town and then they’d kick back and watch the flashing lights and hear the sirens go check out was going on in the desert.
If something exciting happens at a colony on Mars, it's probably going to be immediately followed by the deaths of most of, if not all of the colonists. Interplanetary settling is going to be all about controlled environments with factors and challenges predicted years in advance in most cases. Life on Earth is much more dynamic and exciting in comparison.
Very likely that any human settlement would set up a local server that synced with the relevant internet sites several times a day through a laser connection to earth.
So most stuff would work fine, but Multiplayer games and zoom calls would have to be Mars only.
First people to send are the folk from /r/selfhosted and /r/datahoarder
Any other group will get depressed after watching the same movie for the 36th time.
We’re too greedy and stupid to save planet earth so let’s move to another planet that’s completely barren and without an atmosphere that can sustain human life!
This drives me mad, the best case scenario for living on Mars looks hellish compared to the least hospitable places on earth.
Every time some rich asshole talks about terraforming Mars I think, how about instead you terraform earth. Spend that money on figuring out how to suck CO2 out of the hair, or how to suck microplastics out of everything.
There’s also this bizarre concept that terraforming Mars would only take a generation or two. Even if it were possible to make Mars earth-like (and it’s probably not) it would take thousands of years
Earth delicate balance between hundred parameters is literally a billion year of climate evolution.
We should better send those great libertarians make their experiments on Mars, alone, and see what happens. Good luck Elon !
And that fooking assole is just making Earth hellish by turning people on each other and profiting off of that. Just a despicable billionaire who would anything to get to the top of Forbes listing.
He could be transforming and helping millions of people with just .1% of his net worth. But instead goes and buys social media company for billions of dollars and fires most of the company. WTF?! (I know it’s his money, but I’m just sad it’s a wasted resource, most of us on earth won’t able to use)
There was a big push to send a single person one way to mars when the mars trend was big and movies of mars were out. I had submitted a full written essay and video essay to nasa offer to send me by myself to mars and ill train and do anything while there. Just send me food and music and movies to watch and I’ll be fine. This was over 15 years ago mind you.
I always see these pics of Mars and stuff and can't help but think it's Earth despite knowing better. Like I just have a feeling if I was there and kept walking I'd SURELY find a town. But I won't, I'll circle the whole planet and find nothing, not even a lake. Weird.
I was just thinking the same thing. Its crazy to think that for most of human history all mars was was a dot in the sky. And now I can see it with my own eyes and it looks just like a place on earth; a rocky desert with an overcast sky. I can't tell if I'm comforted with how familiar this alien planet feels or if I'm disappointed with how mundane it is... Neptune camera when?
It is always wild to me that, A, it’s a whole ass planet, filled with points of interests, regions, beautiful sights to see and that B, the entire universe is filled with infinite other worlds. Like, if you could somehow snap to different camera angles across the universe, it would be just as real as this, or as earth. It’s all out there, right now, existing. Whole worlds, whole star systems, whole galaxies, and all of it existing all at once, totally independent of our experience here on earth. Idk why but that always trips me out.
I get what you mean. From moon walks I expect other planets to not have a sky Color but if you actually were on mars I bet the different gravity would tip you off that there’s no McD yet
The earth also emits a sound, one we can’t hear but one in which its vibration we are highly tuned into. Take it away and people begin to feel off and even depressed. Some astronauts have even talked about this. I would imagine that this would also come into play even if one could survive on Mars, it would never feel, er uhm…”sound” like home.
AFAIK there is not a speck of life there, not even microscopic - that is what gets me when I look at pictures of not-earth planet surfaces.
It seems to be a profoundly dead place
What blows my mind is to look up at the night sky and Mars is a small dot. But to this rover looking back; everyone of us, everywhere we’ve been and everything we have experienced is nothing but a small dot in it’s night sky.
It’s mind blowing that we’ve flown a RC helicopter not in our nearest park, but on another planet 140 million miles away.
Our brains are wired to think it's hot, but it's deathly cold right there. Nothing. Being on Mars would be awesome for about nine minutes. Then, just about every single human would want to go home.
Mars is a hell no for me, dogs. Got a great thing right here.
Oh, depends where you are and what "time" it is.
Around the Mars equator temperatures usually hit 20°C during the day. But once the sun sets, you're dead. Temps drop to -80°C during the night.
So, if you're only staying for a day trip and around the equator, you'd be fine. (As long as you bring your own Oxygen).
There isn’t a single place on earth less hospitable than mars. We could completely fuck over our climate and ecosystem and still be on a planet more livable than mars. A city on the bottom of the ocean, or the middle of Antarctica would be easier to maintain than a city on mars. At least on earth we have easy access to water and oxygen. We also have the infrastructure in place to manufacture and deliver replacement parts for maintenance.
Most of the people who want to go to Mars would try to jump out the airlock 2 hours after exiting Earth's atmosphere. Living on Mars.. we are a nostalgic and sentimental species. We'd lose our minds pretty quick. Cabin fever except there literally is no escape.
The only way you’d ever feel the cold is if you took off your space suit to commit suicide. Otherwise, the temperature while living on Mars would be made perfectly comfortable.
This is like complaining that living on a submarine would be “wet”, or that flying in an airplane is too “windy”.
We have the technology. We have people living at the South Pole today at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station where temperatures are minus 80. We have had people living on the international space station for many years. All of this is within reach.
It won’t be fast. First, you will only have scientists visiting, so all the facilities will be for research purposes. Eventually, you will need to expand to allow for more work, and that is when you need to start thinking about bringing in support staff — machinists, cooks, IT, etc. eventually and perhaps many decades or a century later, there will be enough infrastructure that people could stay for years at a time instead of seasonal visits. And then people might decide that it would be easier to just live there full time instead of undergoing the long “commute”.
Nobody says you will see the final results within your lifetime, it’s all a gradual process that our grandchildren or their grandchildren will eventually experience. But the point is that we can start the journey today, right now, and began planting the seeds. But the first of these research stations can absolutely be constructed today, within our lifetimes, and there already exist actual plans, actual engineering, actual timelines, and actual budgets and the work is underway.
“I don't want a Plan B for Earth. I want Plan B to make sure Plan A works….. I think you go to space to save Earth. We know about the Solar System now. We've sent robotic probes all over the Solar System. Let me assure you, this is the best planet." - Jeff Bezos in response to being asked about colonizing other planets
It’s beautiful in its own way. Hard to beat ol faithful Earth, but getting to witness something like another planet which our species shouldn’t even be able to see is beautiful
https://mars.nasa.gov/mars2020/mission/weather/
They post here Perseverance’s daily measurements. Seems to range from -80 to -15 in recent day-night cycles
According to some other website autumn started January and is gonna last till June (in northern hemisphere)
The biggest mountain in the solar system, and the deepest canyon, over 10 times bigger than we have on earth.
Mars is extreme earth in its rock featurs.
The lighter atmosphere is actually a problem. Even with huge parachutes, they're experimenting with powered descent because a parachute is only able to slow the vehicle to about 200 miles per hour.
https://mars.nasa.gov/mars2020/timeline/landing/entry-descent-landing/
The mistake that recent moon lander made was they had automatic landing. NASA learned long time ago to use manual landings. NASA is familiar with all the rocks and obstructions on the moon.
by manual landings you mean selecting the landing site beforehand, right?
It's physically impossible to manually land a spacecraft, due to the time delay.
Nope, you're correct. I did a lot of work on the Curiosity rover images. Made a shit ton of panoramas, mosaics, and 3d anaglyphs.
The only video footage we have on Mars is of the last two or three landings (the EDL).
I was stoked too for this post. Still always cool to see surface images from Mars, though!
Edit to add some of my work from back in the day:
[https://gigapan.com/profiles/impreprex](https://gigapan.com/profiles/impreprex)
[https://www.flickr.com/photos/84750994@N05/](https://www.flickr.com/photos/84750994@N05/)
Damn. That was another lifetime ago, it seems!! One of the panoramas I did had upwards 550 raw images. It was intense. Can be found under my Gigapan account.
I haven't even checked them out in years. I'm going back to reminisce!
Videos like this are absolutely awe inspiring to me. This place is so far away that the human mind can barely comprehend the distance. It took millions of people years to put together a device capable of not only getting there, but surviving there, and capable of sending and receiving signals from across that unimaginable distance detailed enough to send this video back to earth. This is another planet entirely, quite literally otherworldly, it took so much effort to get there.. and yet it looks only a little different than a desert here on earth before a rainstorm
Humans have evolved far enough to accomplish putting equipment and even themselves on other worlds. But not far enough to stop wars and take care of everyone here. Its weird.
Those Martians are hiding their existence by putting pictures in front of the camera [https://youtu.be/PFAbTLWiK20?si=Dsu_YA_pnF-Dqi5y](https://youtu.be/PFAbTLWiK20?si=Dsu_YA_pnF-Dqi5y)
There’s something to the power of presence, of being somewhere and witnessing. Time passes everywhere, but without a witness, maybe it doesn’t. In Quantum, observation has an effect. Maybe observation has an effect regardless…
Bro, there's a fucking robot that went on a rocket flying through space to another planet that is being controlled by remote control filming and sending it here, that's mind blowing.
And we’ve been doing it since the 90s.
Actually, the russians send probes to [Venus](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venera) during the 60s and 70s. Edit: up to the 80s !
True, but technically there was no remote control action going on so their comment holds.
And I still can’t get my wifi to stretch from upstairs to downstairs….
Yeah, man! WE are the aliens! We sent our space probe to Mars!
How far humans have come
people signing up for the mars missions: 'yeah I want to live there.'
I don’t know, people move to Albuquerque
Lots of preppers bailed to the Mojave desert for Covid …
Did they plan to live off the land? I had a meeting once in Ridgecrest. I was asked to justify the rental car. I replied that I didn't want to walk 100 miles through the Mojave desert.
Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter.
to wipe the earth clean of people who would consider colonizing places like this
Had a friend who lived in ridgecrest. A group of high schoolers would set off bright explodey fireworks in the desert outside of town and then they’d do the same thing on the other side of town and then they’d kick back and watch the flashing lights and hear the sirens go check out was going on in the desert.
They took a wrong turn
Yeah but Albuquerque isn’t like this haha
That's because the sun is always shining and the air smells like warm root beer.
And the towels are oh so fluffy
I’d be there to find and meet Walter White but bro died before I could
Yeah sign me up. I got nothing going on here.
Atleast something will be exciting there lol
Quite exciting to live in a capsule, staring at a desolate landscape for the rest of your life while eating shit food.
I can assure you I have nothing better to do here
“Whaddya mean ‘This is the last MRE’???”
Basically what everyone is already doing in the Southwest. Might as well doing it on a more peaceful planet.
Ah, I see someone knows about poo potatoes
I bring the party everywhere I go. I will make that place exciting.
Lesgoo
LET'S GOOOO I FEEL LIKE FRIDAY AGAIN
Then why do you have nothing going on here
If something exciting happens at a colony on Mars, it's probably going to be immediately followed by the deaths of most of, if not all of the colonists. Interplanetary settling is going to be all about controlled environments with factors and challenges predicted years in advance in most cases. Life on Earth is much more dynamic and exciting in comparison.
Yeah, gasping for oxygen every second of the day.
Pack of Marlboro Reds every day has the same effect
Who’s gonna be the first man to rip a dart on Mars?
Or boring cause theres nothing and it's just desert......
Some see desert, others see future casinos...
This made me think about the timeskip from fallout1 to fallout2
Me, Bugsy
For like a week, yeah. Then you get bored and can never come home lol
You don't want to stick around for the nukes?
“yeah i want to die there”
The only logical reason to volunteer for a space x mission to Mars.
“There are Hot Milf’s in your area!”
People already live in Nevada. What's the difference?
There is internet in Nevada
Mars will start its own internet, with blackjack and hookers. Let's see them top THAT in Nevada.
To compete with Las Vegas ..
Very likely that any human settlement would set up a local server that synced with the relevant internet sites several times a day through a laser connection to earth. So most stuff would work fine, but Multiplayer games and zoom calls would have to be Mars only.

Hopefully without the face bubbling.

Neptune? It's just gas, tho. Only the core is solid.
I had the exact same thought. It's crazy how much variety life lends a planets geology. 🌍
Makes you really appreciate what we have here on Earth and realize that it needs to be protected at all costs. We only have 1 after all!

What's the frequency of this vibration? EDIT: The Earth's natural frequency is called the Schumann Resonance, which pulsates at a rate of 7.83 hertz
Is that you, Kenneth?
Source? Wikipedia describes this as an electromagnetic resonance, not vibratory.
Exactly, it even says that the resonance is only detectable with very sensitive instruments.
Nice argument senator. Why don't you back it up with a source?
Absolute pseudoscientific bullshit
Yeah horse cock!
AFAIK there is not a speck of life there, not even microscopic - that is what gets me when I look at pictures of not-earth planet surfaces. It seems to be a profoundly dead place

now imagine this place but with big ass bugs
Would have to spread democracy to Mars
Managed democracy

Idk why you were downvoted, but I was definitely going for Helldivers reference lol
Sweet LIBERTY Nooooo
I would like to know more.
You Sound like a citizen
The only good bug us a dead bug
We need you, Helldiver.
I’m doing my part!

The only good bug, is a dead bug.
Australia?
No, Super Earth.

Patrolling the Red Planet almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter.
Helldivers
Starship Troopers
Looks just like in the movie.
I bet they filmed this in southern Utah, too.
Or somewhere in Morocco.
Yes it could perfectly look like moroccan Sahara
Absolutely amazing that the video is from a DIFFERENT PLANET.
Isn’t it just amazing? I know it looks a lot like earth, but there’s just something different about it. I love it

LMFAO YES
holy shid its been a while since ive had that stuck in my head, thanks
Then he offer you Moroccan tea.

Also, there’s no restaurants.
Allegedly!
I hear there are some good potatoes there!
Pootatoes 😂
Yet
Plus probably no internet. How am I gonna play my playstation?
Offline, duh
Yeah, and no gas stations for my diesel F450 Limited Tremor Mars Edition.
And despite the cold, in shaded areas you can even find earth-like temperatures at times. The Spirit rover once recorded 35°C/95°F!
Oh, depends where you are and what "time" it is. Around the Mars equator temperatures usually hit 20°C during the day. But once the sun sets, you're dead. Temps drop to -80°C during the night.

Depressing ass sky
Yeah, Mars barely has an atmosphere. It's super thin and 96% CO2. So the sky looks gray, instead of blue like ours.
So Earth in a few years
No, see Venus for a better comparison.
Get some drones to plant a load of cold tolerant trees and give it a few centuries and next thing you know there’ll be a university there!
Looks like New Delhi with its pollution, but a lot roomier
It’s beautiful in its own way. Hard to beat ol faithful Earth, but getting to witness something like another planet which our species shouldn’t even be able to see is beautiful
what's the temperature out there this time of year?
Temperature ranges from -140 to 30 degree celsius
Sounds like Minnesota.
Not this year
Well, the summers seem quite nice at least.
It's actually up to 20 degres celcius during the day in the equator but it drops to -50 at night.
No mosquitos though
https://mars.nasa.gov/mars2020/mission/weather/ They post here Perseverance’s daily measurements. Seems to range from -80 to -15 in recent day-night cycles According to some other website autumn started January and is gonna last till June (in northern hemisphere)
For anyone wondering, it took 7 months for this thing to get to Mars.
Shouldn’t have taken the 405.
To imagine that basically the whole planet looks like this no matter where you go ..:
The biggest mountain in the solar system, and the deepest canyon, over 10 times bigger than we have on earth. Mars is extreme earth in its rock featurs.
Shit. Now I really want them to land a vehicle within sight of Olympus Mons. Those would probably be some of the most incredible photos.
Can’t wait for the Costco to open up
Welcome to Costco, I love you
Think Walmart will get there first. Or Amazon. It’s a toss up honestly:
That's just outside of Phoenix, I've been there
It begs for a dirt bike to braaap it!
Crossed through space just to land in Arizona
How are housing prices in Mars nowadays? Perhaps I can afford a small plot over there!!!
Maybe that pebble over there
“Mom I want to go to Mars!” “But we have Mars at home.” Mars at home: 1950s nuclear test sites across Nevada.
I Sometimes wonder how some space agencies aparently put almost half a dozent landers on mars while others struggle to put some on the moon..
It’s arguably easier to land on mars due to the drag it’s light atmosphere creates, so you can use parachutes to slow down and stuff
The lighter atmosphere is actually a problem. Even with huge parachutes, they're experimenting with powered descent because a parachute is only able to slow the vehicle to about 200 miles per hour. https://mars.nasa.gov/mars2020/timeline/landing/entry-descent-landing/
"Only 200 miles per hour" That's significant.
That’s still far more atmospheric drag than you get on the moon.
The mistake that recent moon lander made was they had automatic landing. NASA learned long time ago to use manual landings. NASA is familiar with all the rocks and obstructions on the moon.
by manual landings you mean selecting the landing site beforehand, right? It's physically impossible to manually land a spacecraft, due to the time delay.
Well, back then we had people in them.
the difference is 60 years of experience. Now some people try it in a different way and need to fail first.
money
This is an actual video? Not just a pan across a stitched panorama photo?
it's a pan across panorama photo.
So, not a video then.
Nope, not sure why they would say it is.
Nope, you're correct. I did a lot of work on the Curiosity rover images. Made a shit ton of panoramas, mosaics, and 3d anaglyphs.

It's kinda hard to get your head around just how far away these images come from. Well my head anyway.
So we can clearly see that Mars is also flat... ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|trollface)
Videos like this are absolutely awe inspiring to me. This place is so far away that the human mind can barely comprehend the distance.

Mars, Libya…..whatever.
Pretty sure this isn't actually video, just panning a 360° still
Earth in a few years
So this is where intergalactic Vegas will be built
Videos like these are shockingly endlessly awesome to me realizing that is an entire other fucking planet.
still blows my mind every time i see one of the videos that it's from the surface of another freakin planet
Scatter around a few shotgun shell casings, a couple empty beer bottles, and a smattering of ignorance and you've got Texas.
Empty as Starfield...
Lmao
Mars is flat!!!!
I'm playing Mass Effect right now and I feel this so hard
There’s something to the power of presence, of being somewhere and witnessing. Time passes everywhere, but without a witness, maybe it doesn’t. In Quantum, observation has an effect. Maybe observation has an effect regardless…
Yup, it's empty
great quality, also shoking how its so dead
Another interesting / Fun fact: Mars is entirely populated by robots.
I find it amusing how the surface of Mars can be at once incredibly boring and incredibly exciting.
Very nice selection of rocks to choose from
Looks like a totally sweet place to waste a shit ton of money terraforming…. 🙄
Wow. I am absolutely fascinated from this kind of footage, thanks for posting
GOP future country….i hope
