Say you do Reddit, but… not really Reddit.

“No I don’t have facebook. Do you know Reddit?”

“Oh… Reddit? Yea what subs are you in?”

The “article” reads like a drama. The dude has all original code and artwork and a different game engine. The screenshots show a very simplistic thing… you wouldn’t sue someone because their stick figures look too much like yours. If the game was copied that quickly there wasn’t much substance there to begin with imo.

And water is wet.

The Perseverance lander took real time video of the descent to identify interesting places to visit, so I would say it’s fairly sophisticated at this point.

It’s amazing to see high def footage during the landing. Makes me want to spin up Kerbal Space Program haha.

ISRO is building a lunar lander and JAXA the launch vehicle and rover for LUPEX slated for later this decade.

I’m by no means an expert, but my understanding is Mars’ higher gravity than the Moon makes landing like this much harder because you need to bring a much larger lander and much more fuel, etc. And then the thin atmosphere makes normal parachutes not really viable. That’s why NASA has come up with some interesting ways of dropping payloads onto Mars like surrounding one of the rovers in giant balloons.

Here’s a link to the Perseverance’s parachute + sky crane + boosters landing
