NASA's Perseverance To Reach Mars in '7 Minutes Of Terror' Landing

The video discusses NASA's Perseverance Rover, which is set to land on Mars after a seven-month journey. The mission aims to collect rock and soil samples from the Jezero crater, an ancient river delta. Perseverance features advanced technology, including 23 cameras, two microphones, and the Moxie instrument, which converts CO2 into oxygen. The Rover also carries the Ingenuity helicopter to test flight in Mars' thin atmosphere. The landing process, known as the 'Seven Minutes of Terror,' involves a complex sequence of maneuvers to safely land the Rover. Once on Mars, Perseverance will begin its mission to explore and collect samples.
