Word today that the MMRTG has been installed on the rover, so seems like a good time to start the launch thread. Launch currently scheduled for 30 Jul, 2-hr window opening at 1150 GMT.

GO PERSEVERANCE!!!

A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.

Emily Lakdawalla has noted that she has not yet been able to get detailed information about Perseverance’s additional EDL cameras.

https://twitter.com/elakdawalla/status/1288650896495144960

Matt Wallace just said that the new EDL cameras are ruggedized versions of standard 1080p cameras, and that they will capture, among other things, images of the parachute filling and of the descent engines blasting. He also mentioned that JPL was goaded into increasing the number of EDL cameras from watching beautiful videos of boosters separating from launch vehicles.

There's a paper about them all for the upcoming M2020 Space Science Reviews issue. I've seen some stuff in the media about them: https://www.businessinsider.com.au/nasa-mar...ng-video-2020-7
