So I did a bit of research and found out that Perseverance's Pet Rock never had an official name. <br>I hereby introduce you to *Grit*.<br>"Grit" as in "Determination" but also "Grit" as in "small rock particles".<br>It fits perfectly with the NASA naming scheme and also has a relation to rocks.

Astrum’s work is a slow, poetic burn. It’s more about the journey than the destination. 😊. I love the content.

I didn’t know the control delay on the rovers was so long. It makes way more sense why their top speeds are so slow now

I love this channel. I come back to it 3very now and again. I very rarely see the same level of quality and care put into videos anywhere else on YouTube.

Alex I really appreciate your honesty! All credit is given to the rightful owner and letting us know what's CGI and not!

It’s amazing that after all the issues with dust on the panels they couldn’t have added a duster or fan to the mechanical arms 😂

The real question is: are these rocks telling us about past life, or something even weirder?
