NASA has just uploaded footage of the Perseverance Rover’s descent and touch down on Mars‘ Jezero Crater.
The footage was taken from cameras that captured the spacecraft’s descent stage from above, a view from the rover looking up, a view from the top of the aeroshell, and a view from the bottom of the rover looking down at the martian land.
The footage comes with the audio from NASA’s mission control, explaining everything that’s going on. Watch it below.
You might have seen photos from Mars, but have you seen high-speed video?
