  8. The ESA proposal for a solar-electric cargo tug on a Mars transfer orbit is cool.

    And I understand the historical reference.

    But I keep thinking something called "Lightship" should be a solar sail.

  12. It is already two and a half months since NASA would usually have announced the proposal calls for programs that Congress has ordered it to conduct.

    We do not appear to yet have a date when that will happen.

    Yet again:

    Managers do not have to follow illegal executive orders.

  17. in the direction of Depot #1, to scout the area where some ripples and possible rocks exist, so that the landing area for the #MSR is surveyed by air and known in detail.

    • My take for the flight path shown on the map is along a possible route for #Perseverance to explore the rest of the areas which were shown at the recent #MEPAG 39 meeting by Ken Farley, the #Mars2020 Project Scientist: fosstodon.org/@65dBnoise/10885

  21. The success of #Ingenuity has increased the possibility to have more #MarsHelicopters sooner than later.
