  2. As part of the New Jersey General Electric team that decoded the final temperature telemetry for the mars spacecraft that exploded propellant lines around Mars, we saw some pretty high temperatures. It turns out that O-ring seals for valves normally opened after launch allowed fuel and/or oxidizer to pass through the O-rings into the feed lines for the thrusters over the course of the interplanetary trip. It was a communications satellite bus pressed into service as a Mars orbiter. Our Denver branch mixed up the english and metric units. Thanks for the retrospective. Extremely well done.

  3. 3 : 24 "Aristotle for instance noticed that Mars would pass behind the moon and therefore must be further away." which is the oldest Eric Dubay pre-debunking I now know of. GreaterSapien just did 134 & 135 which includes another claim of Moon transparency which is impossible if Mars is occulted by the Moon showing it is further away.

  4. I was 23 at the time when Spirit snd Opportunity landed. I was working for the DOJ in my country back then. I started every work day in the office with me opening the NASA website to see the latest updates from those two rovers from the time I was sleeping. I was definitely hooked for years, LOL.

    Back then, there was no YouTube, no Facebook, no Twitter.

  5. Just throwing it out there but I would absolutely love to see that Mars Habitat video.

    No pressure ofc, but so much of the coverage of them is about barely thought out concepts and art projects and so little about the real science and work being done on them. Hell yes I want a video with your level of detail.

  6. Thank you for this very comprehensive history of our exploration of Mars. I've been fascinated by the Red Planet since I was a kid, mainly because I have a personal connection to one of NASA's programs – my grandfather worked on the Viking project. In fact, I think he was responsible for my very early interest in science and space.

  7. Love the video. More of this please!
    just a tiny note 🙂 I think at around 1.20 you keep switching between saying indian and israely mission. pretty sure it wasnt a colab? ^^

  8. Absolutely another amazing video! ❤ I’m honestly impressed that you were able to make this video on such a time crunch and with a broken computer! But as a SpaceX nerd I was sad to see that you didn’t include their future mars missions 😂 maybe that’s for a future video?
