Alex, I've said this before, but will repeat it now. I was a boy of just shy of 13 years when I looked in wonder at two men cavorting around on the Moon. My head was filled with all the sci-fi books I always read, and TV shows that I watched. It's been half a century, and I can still remember the wonder I felt then. While I have loved all the scenes of stark beauty given to us by the rovers, it is my fervent wish to see, once again, boot prints on the surface of land not of this Earth, and be transported back in time to that young boy. I implore all the young people of the Earth to set aside childish things such as hate, and focus instead on the destiny of humanity, which is "to boldly go where no one has gone before"!

Astrum's impressive uploads have been life savers for my family that's now quarantining again, fearful of the mutated virus now in Colorado. After four years, each of them a teachable year for the evils of egotistical and ignorant national leadership, your Astrum documentaries have made such manifestations of evil easier to bear, although still sapping our moral and spiritual reserves, mainly because there is consolation and respite to cling to when comparing the pettiness and sheer cruelty of those maniacs with the tenacity of the rovers, and the ingenuity of their earthbound scientists/operators/engineers. All these youtube videos on science and astronomy have done so much to diminish my family's fears, despair, and growing cynicism. Thank you Astrum!

@testfire3000 2 года назад

I believe the media have problems showing these types of missions coherently because other than (as you say) launch and landing, there isn't much to report on a daily basis. Even here on this video, more than *two years* of activity has been covered in barely 10 minutes. That is why I think RU-vid is such a great platform for sharing this kind of info. This guy at Astrum is doing a great job!

living in Norway this is the only time I get excited by rocks. I wish NASA would put out international contest on the new rover design every now and then, and then collaborate with the winning team to improve it according to all knowledge they gathered from Curiosity, Spirit and Opportunity and lunch it to Mars. That way we'd had few rovers constantly rolling on the red planet and exploration would go faster. Also involving more people would make more people interested in engineering, astronomy etc. building new generation of scientists.

Obviously the simulated many wheel designs that work in sand, I'm just surprised thats what the simulations came to for a design. You would think they would have more surface area and larger paddle like shapes, or the ability to extended the paddles out of the wheel when necessary. Thanks for the great content!

@Arjetube 4 года назад

true, I think the reason is to minimally push in the surface of the sand. If you use large paddle (like spike) it is more likely that the wheels could be buried deeper in the sand through the momentum. For a vehicle moving as slowly like this it is more useful to rely on wheels with flat paddles only to get it carefully moving.

@giuseppe3010 3 года назад

I'm a GEOLOGIST (MSci) and I approve this video path!! IF opportunity found clay deposits along its path, these clay units may be montmorillonite or kaolinite. If these are kaolinite deposits they were formed by the hydrothermal alteration and weathering of crystal tuff in the presence of water during long periods for the clays to form. The rock weathering and clay soil formation depends on the initial type of rock, the ratio of water to rock, the temperature, the presence of organisms and organic material (if any), and the amount of time since soil formation. A geochemical analysis is necessary along the Curiosity's path to answer these questions! I hope Opportunity did these analysis! Good luck and thanks for this excellent video !!
