Perseverance has landed!

The rover has landed successfully as expected! The rover’s computer has switched from entry, descent, and landing mode to surface mode. This initiates a series of autonomous activities for the first Martian day on the surface of the Red Planet. Read more about those activities in the Article below, and check out our previous posts for more details on the mission.

Scientists Found a Way to Communicate With People Who Are Asleep And Dreaming

Scientists have identified a new phenomenon they describe as "interactive dreaming", where people experiencing deep sleep and lucid dreams are able to follow instructions, answer simple yes-or-no questions, and even solve basic mathematics problems.

Perseverance Rover Sends Sneak Peek of Mars Landing

This high-resolution still image is part of a video taken by several cameras as NASA’s Perseverance rover touched down on Mars. A camera aboard the descent stage captured this shot.

While NASA’s Mars Curiosity rover sent back a stop-motion movie of its descent, Perseverance’s cameras are intended to capture video of its touchdown and this new still image was taken from that footage, which is still being relayed to Earth and processed.

Pfizer Vaccine Has Weaker Response Against South African COVID Variant, Study Hints

Pfizer-BioNTech's COVID-19 vaccine produces a weakened immune response against the contagious variant found in South Africa, which has now also been identified in the US, a new study has suggested.

There was approximately a two-third reduction in how well antibodies produced by Pfizer's vaccine fought against a lab-made variant.

Earth's Magnetic Field Flipped 42,000 Years Ago. The Consequences Were Dramatic

According to radiocarbon preserved in ancient tree rings, several centuries' worth of climate breakdown, mass extinctions, and even changes in human behaviour can be directly linked to the last time Earth's magnetic field changed its polarity.

Perseverance Team Works on Jet-Lag Inducing 'Mars Time' For The Mission

At NASA, the team of scientists and engineers behind the Perseverance surface operations have to work around the robot's schedule.
That means about 350 people will be keeping "Mars time" for the next three months – shifting their workdays 40 minutes later every day.

Perseverance Rover’s Descent and Touchdown on Mars

NASA's Mars 2020 Perseverance mission captured thrilling footage of its rover landing in Mars' Jezero Crater on Feb. 18, 2021. The real footage in this video was captured by several cameras that are part of the rover's entry, descent, and landing suite. The views include a camera looking down from the spacecraft's descent stage (a kind of rocket-powered jet pack that helps fly the rover to its landing site), a camera on the rover looking up at the descent stage, a camera on the top of the aeroshell (a capsule protecting the rover) looking up at that parachute, and a camera on the bottom of the rover looking down at the Martian surface.

The audio embedded in the video comes from the mission control call-outs during entry, descent, and landing.
