That is so fabulous. But where are the martians?
No I know that, I mean stuff they won’t tell us about. Surely they won’t go all that way and not get some national strategic gain from it?
All the raw data NASA gather from any their missions is free to use and open source. Sure they won’t give you their analysis of the data for free as that’s where the real value in the data is. Eg you’ll be able to see sensor 5 had a reading of 12. That might not mean a lot on its own but combined together with sensor 3 showing reading of 6 that mean they have detected some organic compound or something.
I've watched enough films to know nothing good will come from bringing samples back to Earth, the pictures are cool though :p
They've released sounds from Mars too

I was kinda hoping they'd share [url=
instead...
video of the landing
Hasn't the Mars rover already been to Mars? I know its an astonishing achievement but just thought it had already happened in the last 10 years or so.
There's more than one rover on there. Curiosity landed in 2012, this new one is Perseverance.
