  • One of the best educational vids I have ever watched, no over dramatization, no loud imposing music to muddle the audio, clear and unpretentious, just wonderful, Thank you.
  • @pattas2005
    I love the fact that we have a neighbouring planet which is solely inhabited by robots! 😊😂
  • The landing video is truly one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. Watching from the rover as it descends, with the platform above hovering with its rockets and their transparent exhaust… absolutely incredible. JPL has always had crazy ideas for the landing sequence that we could all read about, like for Spirit and Opportunity with huge airbags and the last two rovers with sky cranes, but seeing it on video just makes it so much more impressive.
  • @utha2665
    I never realised that Perseverance was so large, I always envisaged a large RC sized vehicle. That makes it even more impressive that NASA managed to land such a large vehicle so delicately.
  • I love how Ingenuity is like Perseverance’s baby and ended up being its sidekick on the mission, that’s so cute ❤️🤖🚁🥹
  • @tired1923
    it’s hard not to anthropomorphize this little guy on Mars when there’s a team so human behind it. from the Sherlock Holmes references to its wiggles and the pet rock, this rover embodies the best of humanity.
  • I would've LOVED more videos like this when I was under lockdown roughly 2 years ago. Astrum is way better than a LOT of other science / space exploration / astronomy channels.
  • @NigelDixon1952
    I'm being serious now, Alex. The amount of work you do on your channel shines through with every video you publish. Your work could be shown on mainstream TV without further editing! I'm sure viewers will agree with me, and give you a thumbs up on what i've said. Also, you have a golden voice. Make it available for voiceover work and make some money!
  • @salt-emoji
    Even though I already know most all of this stuff, no one else delivers the info and makes it easy to understand and enjoyable like astrum. One of my favorite channels!
  • @pagarb
    A great story, the "two partners" have almost acquired "personalities", like two friends on a great trip of exploration.. I really hope they can keep going because it seems they're a great team and have already done so much. It would be great to see them keep going. Between them and the scientists who designed, made and are monitoring and sending them on missions, this is a really great story..
  • @GG2.0-ms3wo
    The fact it can do something that it's not programmed to do is amazing and helpful to understanding what else this rover has in store 😄
  • @4thorder
    First off, thanks for the excellent production of this video. The narrative and sequences of images are perfect. As a retired Engineer with over 30 years experience in the automotive industry, I am still amazed at the fact that we can place a series of very complex instruments on Mars, use them from an incredible distance and improve them over previous to work on their own if required. Just incredible on so MANY levels. :)
  • Such a dedicated channel lit up my passion for outer space again
  • @micr0chap
    Exceptional coverage of Perseverance's travels and achievements, Alex. Thanks for all the hard work. You are a worthy commentator on a marvellous machine and its stoic little arial accomplice. Congrats! Fascinating! (subscribed)
  • @gailhowes9398
    Thank you for your video as the picture are so clear and I was able to see how complicated these machines are! Amazing as I’m now 73 and never dreamed to see the surface of Mars!
  • @DMLand
    The writing and narration of this video strikes a perfect balance of humanity and science: too many videos about the Mars rovers veer into "Disneyfication," insisting on treating the rovers as cute characters, rather than some of the most ingenious creations of engineering and science. Your videos are engaging and inspiring without being maudlin. Thank you!
  • @Hippida
    Such an amazing documentary, very well made, and I can appreciate all the work going into getting the Mars pictures, and editing it all. Thank you so very much for this most excellent update on Perseverance mission thus far.
  • @kenemmens6281
    Amazing video, one of the best and most interesting I've seen on YouTube for a long time. Thanks!
  • @GalopaWXY
    Thank you so much for this well-rounded summary of Perseverance's first year! I had missed a lot of these details so I'm really glad you compiled everything together <3
