These images will show you the truth about Mars unless you are a skeptic. The small humans have been crushed by the wheels of the Rover’s sent their for scientific study. JPL secrecy has resulted in the killing of small humans.

The express astronomical video presents Sunset Ridge panorama taken by the Mars Rover Spirit’s panoramic camera during its climb to the top of the “Husband Hill”. The presentation was recorded with the use of virtual reality astronomy software “VRMars-Spirit – The Red Planet Mars 3D” powered by the VRPresents technology. Great vr application for cosmos, science and astronomy lovers. Get the free demo at www.vrmars.com and enjoy roving on the surface of Mars, amazing Martian views and rocks.

www.ted.com At TEDxNASA, planetary scientist Joel Levine shows some intriguing — and puzzling — new discoveries about Mars craters full of ice, traces of ancient oceans, and some compelling hints at the presence, at some time in the past, of life. He makes the case for going back to Mars to find out more.TEDTalks is a daily video podcast of the best talks and performances from the TED Conference, where the world’s leading thinkers and doers give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes. Featured speakers have included Al Gore on climate change, Philippe Starck on design, Jill Bolte Taylor on observing her own stroke, Nicholas Negroponte on One Laptop per Child, Jane Goodall on chimpanzees, Bill Gates on malaria and mosquitoes, Pattie Maes on the “Sixth Sense” wearable tech, and “Lost” producer JJ Abrams on the allure of mystery. TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design, and TEDTalks cover these topics as well as science, business, development and the arts. Closed captions and translated subtitles in a variety of languages are now available on TED.com, at www.ted.com Watch a highlight reel of the Top 10 TEDTalks at www.ted.com

These are video simulations depicting the Mars rover, carrying the Athena science payload, landing on and exploring the Martian surface. LAUNCH * Each Mars Exploration Rover will be launched on a Delta II launch vehicle from Cape Canaveral, Florida. * The Delta II stands about 100 feet tall and the rover is housed in a payload fairing that sits on top of the rocket. The first MER spacecraft launches in the daytime and the second one at night. * The Delta II engines produce more than 140000 pounds of thrust to break the grip of Earths gravity. * Nine solid rocket boosters ring the Delta launch vehicle. Six are ignited at launch and then discarded after they use up their fuel. The remaining three boosters are ignited in mid-air. * After the first stage of the rocket stops firing, it is discarded. Then the second stage engine ignites. * The payload fairing separates and reveals the MER spacecraft. * Small rockets are fired to spin up the third stage. The spinning motion helps to stabilize the spacecraft, acting like a gyroscope. * A burn of the third stage pushes the spacecraft out of Earth orbit and on a trajectory to Mars * The spacecraft must be de-spun so that it can achieve its proper cruise orientation. A set of weights called yo-yos are released from the spinning vehicle on flexible lines. They slow the spin of the spacecraft in much the same way that an ice skater decreases the velocity of a spin by extending his or her arms * The MER spacecraft separates from the …

The predictions of Carl Sagan are in fact true, we are well on our way to a Type One Civilization. ” We embarked on our cosmic voyage with a question first framed in the childhood of our species and in each generation asked anew with undiminished wonder: What are the stars? Exploration is in our nature. We began as wanderers, and we are wanderers still. We have lingered long enough on the shores of the cosmic ocean. We are ready at last to set sail for the stars.” Video clips from: Planet Earth, Home, Timescape, Power of the Planet, Roving Mars, Zietgist, History Channel, Discovery HD. If you have enjoyed this production, then make sure to check out my other Carl Sagan videos.

The video presents 3 panoramas taken by the Mars Exploration Rover Spirit during its ride toward the position called “Larry’s Lookout”. It also presents some features of the VRPresents-technology-based virtual reality software called VRMars-Spirit – The Red Planet Mars 3D, released by Sciterian Technologies. See Martian mountains named “Columbia Hills”, “Tennessee Valley”, “Cumberland Ridge”, the summit of “Husband Hill”, Martian rocky outcrop, rocks and some further views. Watch the planet through the Mars Rover’s eyes. Credits: NASA/JPL/Cornell/MSSS/OSU/New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science/USGS/Honeybee Robotics – More in the software.
