WATCH: MARS in 4K!!
Posted by Heather Blevins in categories: computing, internet, space
A world first. New footage from Mars rendered in stunning 4K resolution.
Although the cameras are high quality, the rate at which the rovers can send data back to earth is the biggest challenge. Curiosity can only send data directly back to earth at 32 kilo-bits per second.
Instead, when the rover can connect to the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, we get more favourable speeds of 2 Megabytes per second.

Lava Tubes!!
District 13
Despite their larger size, the researchers believe that the lava tubes are surprisingly stable, meaning settlers wouldn’t have to worry about them collapsing around them.
