The Insane Engineering of the Perseverance Rover
What struck me in the landing commentary was this tendency to present this like some dumb exotic adventure with lots of teambuilding slogans (also "insane" engineering?). I guess it has to be like that for reasons but it is icky.
This is just engineering on a field trip. We have been there before, we are trying to make it safe to go there again. Things are expected to work.
A lot of white bald men at the monitors but the presentation is diverse :-) NASA is doing its best.

SUCCESS!
Congratulations NASA JPL!
Strong signal from the lander.

Arecibo Observatory:Views during the collapse & pre-collapse
This makes me sad. I hope a new one can be built but they were having trouble even getting the funds to repair it along with everything else going on there. I remember watching something on PBS about this in the '80s and it and NASA had me hooked on all things space-related. I almost chose astronomy as my major in college, sorta wouldn't mind going back for it, space still intrigues me.

COVID Cancel Culture
You could selectively choose events, including NASA launches that were cancelled just as easily.
"Much deadlier than the current one" how exactly can you determine that when the current pandemic is far from over.

Typical Government Worker
Having worked 5 years @ NASA (as a low-level worker), THIS is indeed common, and a skill we all learned.
Some serious abdications occur for this to be so endemic.
Curiosity Snaps 1.8 Billion Pixel Mars Panorama
NASA definitely got their money's worth out of that rover...
NASA Maven Mars Orbiter explained VS. Spiderverse animation
Interesting.
Why can't we use hydrogen balloons to put instruments at the right levels above earth, I wonder?
Do they think the static fluctuations, including the rifts, can be attributed to the almost total lack of atmosphere, or the lack of magnetic field on MARS, or something else?
Maybe I should read the NASA release.....nope, no answers there, only a near verbatim transcript of the narration.
*quality scientific discoveries
The Greatest Shot In Television
When he enters the second shot he is 13 seconds to liftoff. Not so hard to time it right. Would be more impressive if it was one continuous take from start to finish.
42 Years, 3 Months, 4 Days, 6 hours since liftoff till now.
