"Perseverance" Rover (Mars - krater Jezero) : Novih 7 MINUTA TERORA

Curiosity: novi selfi

Slijedi spuštanje helikoptera na tla, a nakon toka odlazak vozila na udaljenost
odakle će se upravljati prvim letom helikoptera...

I evo, sve je spremno za prvi let helikoptera na drugom planetu.
Helikopter ima na vrhu jednu solarnu ploču za autonomnu proizvodnju el. energije.

U međuvremenu, dok se helikopter ne pripremi za polijetanje...

Ovo iznad mi nije uspjelo "white-balanced". 
Ovo dolje je puno bolje...naše nebo je vjerodostojnije, a ostalo je automatika.

Evo i selfi u međuvremenu...

Elise su otključane i isprobane, sve je spremno za polijetanje...

U međuvremenu Curiosity u krateru Gale: promjena plana.
Jedan od 6 kotača je poprilično strgan zato je put  do CILJA razumno skraćen.

Perseverance: krater Jezero. U očekivanju prvog leta helikoptera.

Pritegnila me je ova struktura desno od vozila.
Moj istraživački duh nikad ne miruje.

Može poslužiti za razumijevanje.
Šteta što nije omogućen automatski prijevod.

Mars Helicopter Flight Delayed to No Earlier than April 14

Based on data from the Ingenuity Mars helicopter that arrived late Friday night, NASA has chosen to reschedule the Ingenuity Mars Helicopter’s first experimental flight to no earlier than April 14.
During a high-speed spin test of the rotors on Friday, the command sequence controlling the test ended early due to a “watchdog” timer expiration. This occurred as it was trying to transition the flight computer from ‘Pre-Flight’ to ‘Flight’ mode. The helicopter is safe and healthy and communicated its full telemetry set to Earth.
The watchdog timer oversees the command sequence and alerts the system to any potential issues. It helps the system stay safe by not proceeding if an issue is observed and worked as planned.
The helicopter team is reviewing telemetry to diagnose and understand the issue. Following that, they will reschedule the full-speed test.
