If anything can top the incredible space and spaceflight spectacles of SpaceX, it is missions like Perseverance. All that remains is to pay a deep compliment to NASA, which, after years of preparation, has been able to bring an automatic rover back to Mars, currently the most sophisticated piece of hardware we have ever sent into space. Again, in a pretty crazy way (as seen in this video). For the second time, NASA simply sat a one-ton rover on the surface of Mars from a sky crane, a flying platform that JPL developers had already used on the previous rover Curiosity in 2012, all fully automatic. I don't understand it, just don't. But it's amazing what positive things we as human beings are sometimes capable of. Anyway, the real fun is just beginning, with the scientific part of the mission, which will bring vast amounts of new and surprising data and information (more on the great Kosmonautix portal e.g. here, in Czech). I'm excited!
