I write through joyful tears when I say thank you to all of you for reaching for the stars. For never giving up. For sharing the dream. You are everything I hoped to be and I feel your accomplishments in my soul. You are the brighter light, and the very hope of humanity. Thank you for creating this Mark. You made my soul fly tonight.
8:48 I’m entirely aware he probably said this intentionally for simplicity’s sake, but for anyone who was curious; the actual reason the heat shield is needed(and, as he said, glows from the heat) is because as the craft slams into the air molecules of Mars, the air molecules are unable to move out of the way, and end up bumping into the craft and each other. Because heat is caused by collisions in the molecules of matter, and these molecules are now colliding, it creates immense amounts of heat that, without a shield, would tear the craft apart.
My dad helped make the battery for the rover and my family was very proud of him. Edit: fun story, me and my family were supposed to go to Florida to see the rover launch but because of the pandemic we couldn't go. We still watched it live on KZclip. Its still cool to think that my dad helped with perseverance.
I just got here now, already knowing that it landed successfully, but this video still made me tear up with happiness anyway. Thank you and everyone who's involved, you are a huge inspiration and you give us hope!
I will dedicate my life to doing things like this, thank you for the extra inspiration I needed after getting knocked down. I love this channel and everything you do.
I was an aspiring astronaut/scientist/physicist, however, due to poverty my parents couldn't afford to help me become one. I always dreamt about becoming one of the staffs in NASA and this video made me cry... Mr. Mark Rober is one of the most genuise and the most inspiring guy I love here in KZclip.
You've gone such a long way Mark! As someone who also lost his mom a few years back, I'm sure she would be so proud of what you've done. Stay wonderful and keep those videos coming!
opzz xsin Perseverance landed in Jezero Crater, and it's speed is 4.2-centimeters per second (around 0.1 miles per hour). Curiosity landed in Gale and it has about the same speed (slightly less). A meetup between Perseverance and Curiosity isn't going to happen. Jezero is about 2,300 miles (3,700 km) from Gale Crater, which Curiosity has been exploring since 2012 and traveled 15.35 miles. But Perseverance should encounter future rovers, as Mark explained in the video!
Bro this man never fails to make me emotional over his videos that just bring some beauty into everyone‘s lives. I love this guy and what he does. And how he thinks. Cause that’s dope
Mark, this video is awesome because it shows not only the incredible amount of engineering and science that went into the rover but also how emotional it was for everyone behind the scenes! As far as I’m concerned you are all super heroes!
I´ve seen this video maybe 10 times, ten times I get soo pumped and at the same time so emotional... 10 times I cried seeing Mark shivering... and everytime I feel we can have a better future because of people like Mark...
Thank you Mark to explain the way even a piano teacher like me can understand what you are talking about. Your videos are all so fun and very educational.
It's so cool seeing you handle the actual parts that I deal with metadata for every day. Also the footage of being at JPL for the Curiosity landing when we were on a zoom call this year for Perseverance.
I've seen some amazing things on KZclip, however this surpasses them all! Engineering is just nut, bolts, & other components. It's the people that are unbelievable! The people that have dedicated their lives to push the boundaries of what we believe possible! You're mother must have been incredibly proud Mark! I don't even know you and I am !
@Waylon. the thing about Mars is it takes roughly 6 months to travel to Mars let says they spend roughly 3-21 days collecting and doing experiments on the surface and now need to come back thats another 6 months on top of the 3-21 days logistically don't think they would be able to transport enough food for the astronauts and if they do the traditional method of a capsule how would the astronauts exercise they have to exercise on the iss for 3 hours 6 days a week I'm not saying it's impossible but there's alot of obstacles they need to overcome
I was watching the livestream, and when I heard the simple words: ,,Touchdown confirmed, we are safe on Mars” I literally broke into tears. It’s fascinating how far humanity has come.
When I saw you holding your mother at 15:50 I actually cried a little out of empathy for you...You sir are a great man that I look up to and hopefully one day I’ll be half the man that you are today!❤️
This is much more wholesome to see than what a news portal could deliver - thank you for being with us and giving us this moment to appreciate the great minds who work on amazing things!
It's moments and video's like this one that will enhearten and greatly inspire young people to continue the work you began. Thank you for sharing your journey and experience mate. I wish you and your fam, the brightest of nights and warmest of days. Keep up the amazing work!!
Honestly it just blows me away that humans can make technology like laptops. but to think we can also make rovers that we can send into space and on to a far away planet which just deletes my mind. like we made rock Iron and gold into a rover with so many functions is just insane.
Hey mark, I’ve been wanting work on several projects for months now but I just can seem to stick with anything. I came here to ask you for motivation because I’m considering scrapping all of my projects to wait for inspiration. I love your channel and it helps my brain work when it’s preoccupied on what project I should work on. Every time I try to commit to something, I always overthink it stressing over other things. Your channel is a release from all my stress. Like so mark can see (btw this was the coolest landing I have ever watched) I I V
Spending the Lionshare of my life living close to Edwards I have lots of stories of the fun things I’ve got to bear witness to throughout the last 53 years (the twin sonic booms from the handful of STS missions that landed at Edwards were beyond description in terms of volume in flat out gnarliness) this type of Contant is so exciting I can’t ever watch it just once. Plus when you say the first person to set foot on Mars is alive today (though I know it won’t be me) I am rooting for whoever they are with everything I believe in….kick butt content!!
The video of you watching your rover land made me cry, the images in between of your personal life happening in between and the photo of you and your mom at the end were the best part!!
@Seß Fisher Not really. Liquid water might be at the poles underneath the ice. It may be inhabitable, just not hospitable enough for anything more complex than a microbe to evolve.
I will forever watch this video and not not get the chills down my spine after the 12 minute mark. And that sound track then? My Two Worlds collided at once, truly.
I don't know why but whenever i watch the fottage of the curiousity landing and when they say "Touchdown confirmed we're safe on Mars" it always gives me chills
15:11 imagining this feeling is what is driving me to pursue my career as aerospace mechanical engineer no matter the times no matter how easy or how many opportunities I have in other jobs no matter money, place or pride I want to spend time conceiving a thing that comes out of the passion and brilliance brains of a team that feels and loves the same I do and then watch it together make its first steps
thank you so much for everything that you do for your youtube channel, and thanks for telling me so much about everything. At first, I was just meh about space, and mechanical stuff, but when I watch your vids, you inspire me. Thank you again!!!
I just recently started watching you and I did not know you worked for NASA! You're just even more cool than I thought lol... really though, you're videos are amazing and I'm enjoying watching all of them to catch up!
Did anyone else cry? Because I cried - not just a little choked up, but multiple tears. Amazing. Incredibly moving. Inspiring. Wished I'd seen this before Percy's landing but still.
You inspire me. You inspire me to create massive liquid sand pools, insanely large water guns, and to pursue a career in in engineering. You inspire me. Thank you sir, you deserve an incredible amount if recognition. I hope you receive it.
I watch this video in 2022 but still this video was epic even i'm watching this in 2022.and my favorite part is when Mark got so nervous 13:54 and the call back of his career.
Hey Mark, I am a microbiologist that looks at extreme environments and am doing my thesis relating to astrobiology; seeing potential microorganisms that could survive on mars. This landing was HUGE for me too!
es inpresionante lo que tu haces , tu me estas inspirando a estudiar ingieneria robotica y con el paso del tiempo tambien poder mandar un robot a la luna .
Mark doesn't even look like he's really in his 40s and it's terrifying to think that he spent nearly a decade working at NASA *before* starting his 10+ years as a youtuber. Either the dude looks way younger than he is or he went straight into working at NASA after college. As a (severely struggling) MechE student myself.....how the f%ck?
so cool! NASA is awesome!!! Zoey and I LOVE your videos!!!! We do our best to spread positivity like wildfire and just wanted to say thank you for making your content and love that y'all spread positivity too ✌️♥️✊
TOUCHDOWN CONFIRMED!! WE ARE SAFE ON MARS! Congratulations to @NASA and humanity.
wOOOOo
I love how creative you are
YA!!!!!
BRO WAIT ELON MUSK
I write through joyful tears when I say thank you to all of you for reaching for the stars. For never giving up. For sharing the dream. You are everything I hoped to be and I feel your accomplishments in my soul. You are the brighter light, and the very hope of humanity. Thank you for creating this Mark. You made my soul fly tonight.
Thanks for spreading the word!! It's go time 😎
Nasa
ITS REALLLLL
It NASA it NASA I love the rover you people made
NASA HELLO
Never realized how big the rovers were until people stood near them.
Hd
Mars rovers are the size of of a medium car
yeah i thought it is liek one meter in length or height but its much huger
oh yes I agree
yeah things in space are always alot bigger than they seem
"The first person to set foot on Mars is alive right now, and it could be you"
me, who it most definitely is not: yes
Me at nigh 30s: -_-
me who always wanted to go to Mars: - insert crying -
@Rajiv Shukla is that cool or no
@Rajiv Shukla lol
I'm 10 so "Never"

This is called compression,which is NOT friction,since that would mean that molecules actually are going past the Object.A ode to science.
My dad helped make the battery for the rover and my family was very proud of him.

Source: Trust me bro
😝
@John Campbell 😂
This was a really moving experience. That level of human nervousness turned into a moment of achievement that truly is on another level. Bravo.
And if aliens steal the rover we need a Glitterbomb 4.0 for Mars.
@Francis Foley mom
Agreed
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Make that 6.0
It will only take 9 months it’s worth it
I just got here now, already knowing that it landed successfully, but this video still made me tear up with happiness anyway. Thank you and everyone who's involved, you are a huge inspiration and you give us hope!
Mark: So anyone we see walk by, you can boss around?
Marks old boss: yeah
Marks mind: Soon I will use that power

@Gorgit where I live it costs a fortune (Northern Ireland)
@gene mambo you expect them to pay for university?
Hate to be that guy, but it’s because of capitalism.
"it takes 12 mins for the rover to send a signal to earth"
me at nasa:
what is up with this lag
Me wondering how they get a perfect signal with 2 planets rotating and 12 minutes of lag
Think about the distance
@Pilot Pro Gaming R/peoplearesyupie
@Pilot Pro Gaming r/wooosh
its taking long because you forgot to install the new update
You've gone such a long way Mark!
As someone who also lost his mom a few years back, I'm sure she would be so proud of what you've done.
Stay wonderful and keep those videos coming!
Hey its Anton
You are really kind
@Iron 451 lol idk from where
wait a minute you look familiar

I would say the same thing
I got emotional although I don't care about space
Yea
Mark, this video is awesome because it shows not only the incredible amount of engineering and science that went into the rover but also how emotional it was for everyone behind the scenes! As far as I’m concerned you are all super heroes!
I´ve seen this video maybe 10 times, ten times I get soo pumped and at the same time so emotional... 10 times I cried seeing Mark shivering... and everytime I feel we can have a better future because of people like Mark...
when I was little I was scared about space, now I see how incredible it is.
its scary and beautiful like most things that exist
it's death out there, we have but this one planet for life
Absolutely beautiful video, Mark. Such a win for you guys, and for humanity.
This guy is literally the definition of a cool uncle.
...
@Kristina not funny that might actually happen pray it doesn't
True
Achieved *swag*
This comment is literally the definition of a copied comment
Thank you Mark to explain the way even a piano teacher like me can understand what you are talking about. Your videos are all so fun and very educational.
I've never loved science more than this moment. Thank you Mark Rober
It's so cool seeing you handle the actual parts that I deal with metadata for every day. Also the footage of being at JPL for the Curiosity landing when we were on a zoom call this year for Perseverance.

You're mother must have been incredibly proud Mark!
I don't even know you and I am !
Definitely
Today marks two years of this fantastic safe and amazing landing. Congrats to NASA. Thank you for inspiring us all .
I feel like the reason we all love this guy is because he never clickbaits, and he never brags about how smart he is.
And because we can learn new things while being interested
Facts I hate broke clickbaiters🤣
So true👍😌😏🤔
@Tyrannosaurus Flex we still like him tho I guess (or most people)
Yep and I wanna build things like him
Every video, every one of them gives me either goosebumps or makes me emotional. Thank you Mark
The first person to arrive on Mars would need to understand it is probably a one-way trip. Exciting and scary at the same time.
To be honest, It would take much more time. You just have to design a way to store extra fuel and oxygen and food
@Max_n_ruby 1911 you could easily fit a year’s supply of food on a spacecraft…
@Max_n_ruby 1911 what about the people who live in space year round
It is probably a 1 way trip i think
@Waylon. the thing about Mars is it takes roughly 6 months to travel to Mars let says they spend roughly 3-21 days collecting and doing experiments on the surface and now need to come back thats another 6 months on top of the 3-21 days logistically don't think they would be able to transport enough food for the astronauts and if they do the traditional method of a capsule how would the astronauts exercise they have to exercise on the iss for 3 hours 6 days a week I'm not saying it's impossible but there's alot of obstacles they need to overcome
This is so amazing. Unbelievable how we as humans can accomplish such a complex things if we come together. Too quality content Mark.
I was watching the livestream, and when I heard the simple words: ,,Touchdown confirmed, we are safe on Mars” I literally broke into tears. It’s fascinating how far humanity has come.
Same here. Omg so friggen emotional.
Rover landings are so emotional and its something we can all feel proud of collectively as a species. We're literally going places :)
Super pumped for this, thanks for the inspiring video!
I didnt even know this existed
Yo Sebastian! Love your work, and of course you are here ^^
@Tomoruin im thicc
.
When I saw you holding your mother at 15:50 I actually cried a little out of empathy for you...You sir are a great man that I look up to and hopefully one day I’ll be half the man that you are today!❤️
@Acxg R6 He meant his son was born.
didnt he say “I had a son” too? 😥
This is much more wholesome to see than what a news portal could deliver - thank you for being with us and giving us this moment to appreciate the great minds who work on amazing things!
It's moments and video's like this one that will enhearten and greatly inspire young people to continue the work you began. Thank you for sharing your journey and experience mate. I wish you and your fam, the brightest of nights and warmest of days. Keep up the amazing work!!
Thank you for all what you bring to the world Mark, we love you so much, you always fill my heart with joy.
Mark's videos will have you tearing up.🥺🥺 Any video he makes is just an emotional roller coaster.
I teared up seeing the joy of everyone’s hard work becoming a success
Congratulations mark on 10 years of curiosity you must be so proud of the work you have done hopefully you will see curiosity for 10 more years
I can’t believe I cried while watching this adorable video (12:44 till the end) I mean like his reaction is everything🥺🥺🥺
Love you mark❤️
Idk about anyone else but this story just feels like it would be the "series finale" of Mark's channel, like def the peak of his career
Even tho it’s 4 months later, I almost cried when it landed
4 years?
Wht??
JUST LANDED! History has been made once again.
LESSSS GOOOOOOO
@TilteDD thats what im saying. It aint history if it hapened before. Twice
@pea tier what?
YESSSSIRR
LETS GOOOO
Mark is like the most inspiring person ever. I want to work for nasa when I’m older, amd my biggest dream is to go there for a tour
same
This was such a beautiful video it has also given me an extra push to work harder in my aerospace engineering systems degree I’m currently studying
Honestly it just blows me away that humans can make technology like laptops. but to think we can also make rovers that we can send into space and on to a far away planet which just deletes my mind. like we made rock Iron and gold into a rover with so many functions is just insane.

Imagine having him as your science teacher. I would never be late for class ever again.
Oml yes
Boy why you late for class?
ScIeNcE!!
But sadly I'm stuck with my teacher
@invalid_usernameಠ_ಠ I’m lucky to have math as last class and science as my first class-
@Jordan Hughes ok, well... I did'nt I just typed the same comment on a different video. But, ok. IDC
I love the work that goes into the sacrificial elements of this! This is all so insanely amazing
It was so amazing too see how passionate and attached to your work you were! It shows is your videos too! Thank you for sharing this with us!
This was honestly a huge moment for human history.
The video of you watching your rover land made me cry, the images in between of your personal life happening in between and the photo of you and your mom at the end were the best part!!
That was a inspiring video. We love you so much Mark
Imagine if the aliens were like
"omg its a UFO"
@Seß Fisher Not really. Liquid water might be at the poles underneath the ice. It may be inhabitable, just not hospitable enough for anything more complex than a microbe to evolve.
It is a UFO
@ObviouslyLeo8257 .............ok?
@Seß Fisher you have now earned: 3000 more IQ
These comments are gold
I will forever watch this video and not not get the chills down my spine after the 12 minute mark. And that sound track then? My Two Worlds collided at once, truly.
In all honesty, seeing the images and how fun you made it seem, I want to do what you did. It seems a lot more fun than an office job
i love mark because he explains everything it is awesome
I don't know why but whenever i watch the fottage of the curiousity landing and when they say "Touchdown confirmed we're safe on Mars" it always gives me chills
Even though the reaction and footage was his reaction to curiosity, it’s still really cool to see another rover on mars
I’ve actually been there and seen curiosity being worked on from up close. It was super cool.
Helping in the building of a project like this and working at NASA as an engineer is my dream, hope I’ll get there one day🙂
Because of how basic (in comparison) of engineering Mark always does on his channel I forget half the time that Mark used to work for NASA
You are such an inspiration. Thank you so much for making the content!
That excitement at the very end was contagious... I'm actually tearing up a bit.
Who’s here after it landed safely
Congrats to everyone who worked on it🎉🥳

really made sure that the O was circular enough
Much much much much more
15:11
imagining this feeling is what is driving me to pursue my career as aerospace mechanical engineer
no matter the times
no matter how easy or how many opportunities I have in other jobs
no matter money, place or pride
I want to spend time conceiving a thing that comes out of the passion and brilliance brains of a team that feels and loves the same I do
and then watch it together make its first steps
Now I feel the emotion coming from the phrase "Touch down confirm, we are safe on Mars"
Thank you for spreading the hype and love about this incredible project
I cried when curiosity and perseverance landed also at the end of this video
The amount Mark has accomplished before 40 years old, might be the most inspirational and impressive thing about this dude. Much respect Mark !!
🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠
It is if you compare it to some of us being half his age or close to his age and accomplished nothing.
yeahhhh
Why do I have this feeling that my mans gonna die in his 50's
@TheSilentReviewer Sure you can have feedback!
It's awful, you are awful.
I've always heard in your videos you worked here, but it 's nice to actually see what that looked like for you! Thanks for making this.
thank you so much for everything that you do for your youtube channel, and thanks for telling me so much about everything. At first, I was just meh about space, and mechanical stuff, but when I watch your vids, you inspire me. Thank you again!!!
Amazing how nasa has got so far
Seeing everybody at NASA jumping and yelling in joy and satisfaction just tears me up seeing how hard they’re smiling.
I just recently started watching you and I did not know you worked for NASA! You're just even more cool than I thought lol... really though, you're videos are amazing and I'm enjoying watching all of them to catch up!

Hey Mark, I am a microbiologist that looks at extreme environments and am doing my thesis relating to astrobiology; seeing potential microorganisms that could survive on mars. This landing was HUGE for me too!
This made me cry tears of joy. Mankind can do such amazing things 🥲
You make science emotional. Thanks Mark!
Imagine everyday going to Nasa and working on a rover for 7 years. That would be cool!
Imagine being the guy who gets to say “touchdown confirmed, we are safe on mars!”
It was a girl who said it no? Lol
Also anything you want me to react too.
@Egizikid Ah, yes, the memes!
@Random Dude what?
I mean that guy will never not work a second of the rest of his life. You wanna be the thousandth after they have habs
This is incredible . Fair play to all you engineers qualify stuff
Currently a 3rd year aerospace student at A&M and that clip at the end is what we a
lol dream of. So freaking awesome
es inpresionante lo que tu haces , tu me estas inspirando a estudiar ingieneria robotica y con el paso del tiempo tambien poder mandar un robot a la luna .

Mark you inspired me to want to become either an aerospace engineer or a N.A.S.A engineer! Its so cool engineering
i swear his videos never get boring !
so cool! NASA is awesome!!! Zoey and I LOVE your videos!!!! We do our best to spread positivity like wildfire and just wanted to say thank you for making your content and love that y'all spread positivity too ✌️♥️✊
That ending scene seriously, like actually brought me to tears, that was beautiful.
