APOD: 2021 February 23 - Video: Perseverance Landing on Mars

Thank you my friend Maj William W. 'Bill' Price for posting the NASA Astronomy Video Clip of the Day (AVCOD) for February 23, 2021 which is a video release from NASA Public Affairs titled "Video: Perseverance Landing on Mars."

It is wonderful for success in many endeavors. Those of a peaceful nature are wonderful to view on News casts which tend to focus on the bead and evil [actual and imaginary].

God blesses individuals with wisdom and groups with ability to work together to develop solutions to complex issues and technological processes.

AVCOD background
"Explanation: What would it look like to land on Mars? To better monitor the instruments involved in the Entry, Decent, and Landing of the Perseverance Rover on Mars last week, cameras with video capability were included that have now returned their images. The featured 3.5-minute composite video begins with the opening of a huge parachute that dramatically slows the speeding spacecraft as it enters the Martian atmosphere. Next the heat shield is seen separating and falls ahead. As Perseverance descends, Mars looms large and its surface becomes increasingly detailed. At just past 2-minutes into the video, the parachute is released and Perseverance begins to land with dust-scattering rockets. Soon the Sky Crane takes over and puts Perseverance down softly, then quickly jetting away. The robotic Perseverance rover will now begin exploring ancient Jezero Crater, including a search for signs that life once existed on Earth's neighboring planet."
