00:00:22,710 --> 00:00:20,400
in the 10 months since the rover has

3
00:00:25,589 --> 00:00:22,720
landed we've been busy

4
00:00:27,589 --> 00:00:25,599
and it's been a year of perseverance

5
00:00:29,910 --> 00:00:27,599
from operating during covid to the

6
00:00:32,790 --> 00:00:29,920
challenges we experienced with sampling

7
00:00:34,470 --> 00:00:32,800
to interpreting the scientific results

8
00:00:37,270 --> 00:00:34,480
it's such an appropriate name for the

9
00:00:44,630 --> 00:00:37,280
vehicle but also for the team and the

10
00:00:49,350 --> 00:00:47,029
this mission has a series of firsts that

11
00:00:59,110 --> 00:00:49,360
will help future generations understand

12
00:01:03,750 --> 00:01:01,270
one of my favorite moments was seeing

13
00:01:05,350 --> 00:01:03,760
our first rock core sample

14
00:01:07,429 --> 00:01:05,360
looking down the tube when it was still

15
00:01:16,149 --> 00:01:07,439
in the drill bit and confirming that it

16
00:01:19,910 --> 00:01:18,149
now that we've collected samples

17
00:01:21,429 --> 00:01:19,920
everyone wants to know when and how

18
00:01:23,429 --> 00:01:21,439
they'll be coming back

19
00:01:25,670 --> 00:01:23,439
we can't wait for the future mission to

20
00:01:28,070 --> 00:01:25,680
pick them up and ferry them to earth to

21
00:01:30,310 --> 00:01:28,080
analyze if any of them show signs of

22
00:01:32,550 --> 00:01:30,320
ancient life

23
00:01:34,469 --> 00:01:32,560
the first flight of a powered aircraft

24
00:01:36,230 --> 00:01:34,479
another planet

25
00:01:38,149 --> 00:01:36,240
another highlight of this year was

26
00:01:40,710 --> 00:01:38,159
working with the helicopter team to

27
00:01:43,510 --> 00:01:40,720
deploy ingenuity and experience the

28
00:01:45,910 --> 00:01:43,520
first powered flight on another planet

29
00:01:47,990 --> 00:01:45,920
it was so amazing to see the team adapt

30
00:01:50,789 --> 00:01:48,000
to the environmental changes in order to

31
00:01:53,030 --> 00:01:50,799
keep flying the helicopter has become a

32
00:01:58,330 --> 00:01:53,040
real asset and partner to our science

00:02:03,830 --> 00:02:01,910
[Music]

34
00:02:05,030 --> 00:02:03,840
it feels great to be part of making

35
00:02:07,350 --> 00:02:05,040
history

36
00:02:09,990 --> 00:02:07,360
what motivates us as engineers and

37
00:02:12,390 --> 00:02:10,000
scientists exploring another planet is

38
00:02:13,670 --> 00:02:12,400
the opportunity to continuously learn

39
00:02:15,110 --> 00:02:13,680
more

40
00:02:17,270 --> 00:02:15,120
now that we've toured the floor of

41
00:02:19,510 --> 00:02:17,280
jezreel crater we look forward to

42
00:02:21,910 --> 00:02:19,520
investigating the delta a part of the

43
00:02:23,830 --> 00:02:21,920
crater where a river fed into a lake in

44
00:02:25,990 --> 00:02:23,840
the distant past

45
00:02:28,070 --> 00:02:26,000
it's almost as if we're starting a new

46
00:02:30,070 --> 00:02:28,080
mission because we'll start to cover new

47
00:02:31,509 --> 00:02:30,080
ground and make new scientific

48
00:02:34,550 --> 00:02:31,519
discoveries

49
00:02:36,790 --> 00:02:34,560
what i'm most proud of is the team

50
00:02:38,949 --> 00:02:36,800
how we operate the rover overcome

51
00:02:41,190 --> 00:02:38,959
challenges and the dedication that

52
00:02:42,309 --> 00:02:41,200
everyone brings to their job each and
