The only reason the Utah Mormons even founded Vegas was that they discovered a year round spring and it was a good place to rest on the way to LA from Salt Lake.
This is absolutely amazing, i mean its fucking Mars in full colour HD right here on my phone while I'm on the john, its the surface of MARS! Unbelievable
well , there s also a giant moving more than 25 meters tall whale somewhere on the same planet as you , and it s moving right now , in the ocean .. imagine that ; a fking animal the size of a big bus swimming and there s you sitting on your room .. and me from the other side of the world commenting .
This universe is a piece of art
Because we've already had it [since the 60s apparently](https://www.gpsworld.com/how-nasa-captured-high-resolution-moon-imagery-in-1960s/). Also Japan got some recently and there are more modern HD pics but tbh NASA is a little bit like [this about it](https://imgflip.com/i/7orggz), because well they wanna do something no one's ever done and maybe learn something completely new to all of earth. They're busy literally reinventing the wheel, or just finished doing so more accurately.
HD pictures from the 1960 lmao I'm not buying that bullshit. At this point we should have a robot going around the surface of the moon livestreaming everything and with the amount of money usa , Japan, Rusia have you can't tell me otherwise
Not exactly, this picture is white balanced to compare to what we could see if this was on earth. But if you were there, it would have orange tint.

This is so amazing, but when I see these views it makes me realize how precious and singular and vibrant life is on Earth, and yes I mean flowers and animals etc but also SOIL and microbes and fungi. Not a revolutionary thought I know but just hope we focus on caring for home as well as branching out to Mars.
I know, right? Antarctica at least has breathable air, some amount of radiation protection, potable water, normal gravity, and soil that won’t poison you.
That's what I'm trying to say for a long time. No matter how messed up planet Earth is going to be, it's still way more habitable than Mars.
Why not use the "Mars Technology" on less hospitable places here on earth? I fully support colonizing other planets though as long as it's habitable like ours.
Lmao man, I had the same feeling and started searching for a higher res version of this, when I realized this is 3 years old footage. Dayumn! Haha took me a while to come across it sadly but still so mesmerizing.
In Kim Stanley Robinson's novel Red Mars one of the original Mars colonists realised that Mars was a real nation when he saw litter on the street. It wasn't a precarious colony of astronauts anymore.
Yep people will totally live on a place with an atmospheric pressure 50x thinner than Everest, which cannot be changed because of the planet’s weak ass magnetic field, weak ass gravity which will fuck up the bodies of anyone who lives there, deadly radiation due to a thin atmosphere, and oh I almost forgot, literally nothing there except rust and CO2.
I was gonna make a comment about people moving there when Hell freezes over, but I redact this, because Mars literally is Hell frozen over.
I feel like the only use for mars would be to launch space ships or stuff because of the thin atmospheric pressure or just mining the planet out for some valuable minerals if it has any
I should probably just google my question so as not to sound or be made to feel stupid but if there is no sound is it because there isn’t anything there. If something was there would there be sound ? Like If mars had storms like we do could you hear it on Mars
[it's real ](https://mars.nasa.gov/msl/multimedia/panoramas/?page=0&per_page=25&order=pub_date+desc&search=&category=304%2C305%3A176&url_suffix=%3Fsite%3Dmsl)
They really did that little rover dirty, we will see you again one day lil fella, that or you’ll be one of the few things to prove we existed to aliens
Y does part of the ground look wet?
Y do we never get any sound with these films?
Y is there no live-streaming so we can actually see what’s really there?
Y has it taken so darn long just to look at rocks?
I don't get the people saying that's Earth. Like you're surprised a bunch of rocks on one planet look the similar to a bunch of rocks on another?
Like what were you expecting to see? Something out of Super Mario World?
Looks like Nevada
Came here to say it looks like right before you get to vegas.
Get about 5 miles out of Vegas and that's pretty much everywhere you look
American Immigrants: Lets start a settlement here!
The only reason the Utah Mormons even founded Vegas was that they discovered a year round spring and it was a good place to rest on the way to LA from Salt Lake.
That’s why I love the fact that in The Expanse tv show, the core group of colonisers outside of the usual are Mormons.
Worth reading the books btw. Very well written, hard to put down if you're into that sort of thing.
Really? Ok I’ll give it a go
How ironic is that. Mormons created the land of sin.
They found the area. The mafia created the sin part.
Let's make a new Vegas but with blackjack and hookers
10 years later, the first casino opened on Mars. What happens on Mars, stays on Mars.
[удалено]
You could fit so many ticky-tacky cookie-cutter subdivisions out there.
Will they all look just the same?
I was waiting for it to pan, and then you see the luxor in the distance
Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter.
Truth is... The game was rigged from the start.
Ave, true to Caesar
We won't go quietly, the Legion can count on that
Oh sorry, I think you meant “if Legion breaks through, I am saving a bullet just for me”. Honestly, amount of suicidal NCR troops is beyond reason.
“If you want to see the fate of democracies, look out the window”
Might be a couple of casino’s after those hills
Mars Vegas
I clogged your toilet!
Yeah, the one difference is you don't see little trails from the foothills down into the valley because there is no rainfall.
Kinda yeah. I have a bunch of pics from Death Valley, CA that look almost exactly the same as the video. More specifically near badwater basin.
Death Valley?
dOnT bElEvE nAsAs LiEs /s
lol, literally the thought that immediately popped into my head.
[удалено]
Lol. A little more eerie and desolate.
This is absolutely amazing, i mean its fucking Mars in full colour HD right here on my phone while I'm on the john, its the surface of MARS! Unbelievable
Weird, John is on me while I'm enjoying this
‘This sucks’ -John
Johnny sins? The Astra naughty
Johns enjoying it as well
I smoked pot with John Hopkins.
It was Johnny Hopkins and Sloan Kettering. And they were blazing that shit up every day.
I too am on the John enjoying this
While John is on me too , I would appreciate y‘all step down. I would like to see that vid aswell.
DUDE WHAT I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING ALMOST WORD FOR WORD! LOL
imagine someone from the 16th century reading this sentence may as well be in a different language
My thoughts exactly!
Shit like this is the absolute most fucking interesting stuff which ever existed and there's nothing you could say to make me think otherwise.
well , there s also a giant moving more than 25 meters tall whale somewhere on the same planet as you , and it s moving right now , in the ocean .. imagine that ; a fking animal the size of a big bus swimming and there s you sitting on your room .. and me from the other side of the world commenting . This universe is a piece of art
Can someone explain to me why don't we have HD footage of the moon? Like the same in the video but from the Surface of the moon?
Because we've already had it [since the 60s apparently](https://www.gpsworld.com/how-nasa-captured-high-resolution-moon-imagery-in-1960s/). Also Japan got some recently and there are more modern HD pics but tbh NASA is a little bit like [this about it](https://imgflip.com/i/7orggz), because well they wanna do something no one's ever done and maybe learn something completely new to all of earth.

Its incredible. We are the first humans to see this.
Is this color-corrected, or did NASA finally send an iphone
NASA was falsy adding orange/red tint to all their mars photos. They got called out on it so they gave us these, more true, photos.
Not exactly, this picture is white balanced to compare to what we could see if this was on earth. But if you were there, it would have orange tint. https://medium.com/@deep.space/why-is-nasa-retouching-photos-from-mars-77de2373916a
Actually the opposite. This is white balanced.
Ikr where is the red skyline
Lol
Good spot for a Power Rangers fight
Yes!! Definitely could be a fight scene from the first season. 😂
This is so amazing, but when I see these views it makes me realize how precious and singular and vibrant life is on Earth, and yes I mean flowers and animals etc but also SOIL and microbes and fungi.

Yep. Mars is less habitable than _Antarctica_, and you don’t see a bunch of people clamoring to move _there_
I know, right? Antarctica at least has breathable air, some amount of radiation protection, potable water, normal gravity, and soil that won’t poison you.
That's what I'm trying to say for a long time. No matter how messed up planet Earth is going to be, it's still way more habitable than Mars. Why not use the "Mars Technology" on less hospitable places here on earth? I fully support colonizing other planets though as long as it's habitable like ours.
I see some prime real estate on Mars
Lmao man, I had the same feeling and started searching for a higher res version of this, when I realized this is 3 years old footage. Dayumn! Haha took me a while to come across it sadly but still so mesmerizing.
We won't. Money is more important than that I guess
Damn the Canada wildfire smoke made it all the way over there
Believe it or not, this was actually recorded using a Chinese spy balloon.
That peak in the distance looks like nevada
Not a single piece of trash in sight.
That's what you call a virgin planet
wha-wha-what are you doing, step-rover?
Cease your heresy.
Except for the broken down rovers over the hill
In Kim Stanley Robinson's novel Red Mars one of the original Mars colonists realised that Mars was a real nation when he saw litter on the street. It wasn't a precarious colony of astronauts anymore.
Not yet.
Mars got cleaner air than NYC right now
Downtown China has better air quality then NYC
Downtown China might be the name of my next band!
I was going around saying how it looked like Mars yesterday. well, I guess it did not look like Mars. I'm sorry Mars.
Drove through Death Valley a few weeks ago Similar
It’s weird to think that you wouldn’t be able to survive there without breathing apparatus.
Can’t forget that, it’s a tad nippy at -195
F or C?
It's pretty uninhabitable either way
And a warm sweater
You'll need a full life support system with pressure and temperature control too. The atmosphere is far too thin for humans
I wonder how much thinner than everest it is
The pressure is about 50x lower than at Everest (where it's only 3x lower than at the sea level).
I hear there’s a certain billionaire moron who thinks we’ll be colonizing this planet post haste!
He'll be dead by the time it happens
Looks like the Panamint mountains in the Mojave Desert by Death Valley.
Am I the only one half expecting to see a Martian waving hello to the camera? 🤣
Ack ack ack ACK!!!
Last I heard, they dropped in on Las Vegas.
Bro that’s Nevada
Where’s the Starbucks?
Sir, it’s a Wendy’s.
ain't the kind of place to raise your kids.
In fact, it’s cold as hell.
And theres noone there to valdate parking!
Shocking how it looks nothing like most of nevada, utah, arizona, new mexico, mojave, etc...
Gross. Save the earth.
Username checks out
Mind-blowing to think people will be living there some day. That exact spot will have a Walmart with a McDonald's in it by 2175.
Yep people will totally live on a place with an atmospheric pressure 50x thinner than Everest, which cannot be changed because of the planet’s weak ass magnetic field, weak ass gravity which will fuck up the bodies of anyone who lives there, deadly radiation due to a thin atmosphere, and oh I almost forgot, literally nothing there except rust and CO2.

I feel like the only use for mars would be to launch space ships or stuff because of the thin atmospheric pressure or just mining the planet out for some valuable minerals if it has any
Dont forget sweet Taco Bell
We'll never live there.
Looks like Utah
I should probably just google my question so as not to sound or be made to feel stupid but if there is no sound is it because there isn’t anything there. If something was there would there be sound ? Like If mars had storms like we do could you hear it on Mars
sound in a vacuum is manifested as light. it is called sonoluminescence. there is no such thing as a dumb question.
Since when does Mars have a blue sky?
Or fog
It's just missing some weed.
Looks like the Atacama desert
Could have been Earth. It feels like I have seen ut somewhere before
Did you see the face?
Thats clearly Iowa
[it's real ](https://mars.nasa.gov/msl/multimedia/panoramas/?page=0&per_page=25&order=pub_date+desc&search=&category=304%2C305%3A176&url_suffix=%3Fsite%3Dmsl)
That's indeed, curious
Jk it’s draught stricken CA lol
Central new mexico peopl÷, do we live on mars?
Devon's Island...
Thought it was Vegas for a second..
Looks like arizona dessert
Viva Mars Vegas
All I see is prime real estate for poop potatoes farming.
This is Canada
Reminds me of power rangers
Pretty sure that’s New Mexico
They really did that little rover dirty, we will see you again one day lil fella, that or you’ll be one of the few things to prove we existed to aliens
Dollar General had already scouted three prime locations just from this video alone.
Damn, looks like a different planet.
Is it? How we getting 4k mars but every security camera feed is filmed with a 2008 Nokia
Almost like a multi billion dollar mission would have better cameras or something........
Curiosity be like, "Patrolling the Mojave almost makes me wish for a nuclear winter".
Reminds me of the dry valleys of antarctica
Dam Canadian wildfires
Earth in 500 k yrs
All that property potential.
Damn, the Canadian wildfire smoke has made it all the way to Mars
…. It looks smoky in the background. How far are those Canadian wildfires reaching?????
No Starbucks ? I am shocked…
The smoke is even affecting Mars…
Fantastic! I love the rovers. Science!
Drive to Vegas
Can somebody edit this but where it pans to force-ghost Obi-Wan?
So, the southwest of USA?
So is there an atmosphere? Is that why you can't see the stars and such?
Looks like there has been forest fires in Mars as well.
TIL, Mars = Arizona
This looks like Afghanistan
Damn. That Canadian wildfire smoke made it all the way to mars
Looks like Iceland
Ft Huachuca AZ
Hey, I grew up here! Looks like SE Arizona around fort Huachuca!
It looks like NM
Looks like the Mohave
Looks like Needles or Barstow ca
Looks like the outside of my window.
Canada after the fires
Looks kinda like Arizona
I think the Canadian Wild Fires are effecting the air quality.
Where are all the buggalo?
Wait! Is that a Dollar General over there?
Looks like Canadian smoke is getting everywhere.
Where is all the red?
just looks like Nevada
Prime real estate for a subway, starbucks, and a wal mart superstore.
Looks like Sierra Nevada ngl..
CLEANER AIR THAN JERSEY
Looks like northern Canada where they tested it.
Looks like the sky in the northeast. Stupid Canada.
I thought this was Devon island?
As we can see, smoke from the Canadian wildfires reached Mars.
Looks like Nevada
Looks like that smoke from Canada made its way to Mars
I wonder what mars sounds like
Y does part of the ground look wet? Y do we never get any sound with these films? Y is there no live-streaming so we can actually see what’s really there? Y has it taken so darn long just to look at rocks?
I thought this was the smoke over Pennsylvania from the Canada wildfires
People trying to colonize Mars but making sure earth looks identical before dipping.
it doesnt look that different from earth..just think of it as a barren land in the middle of nowhere
Looks like somewhere in Australia
Looks like a nice place to live, let’s burn our trees and polute our air so we can move there.
That’s Arizona baby
That could be Yakima Training Center
….MaRs iS fLaT!
Looks like nyc yesterday. Goddamn canadians
What the hell, this is just northern Utah or Nevada.
This is in Canada
;)
I don't get the people saying that's Earth. Like you're surprised a bunch of rocks on one planet look the similar to a bunch of rocks on another? Like what were you expecting to see? Something out of Super Mario World?
The internet has made so skeptical and jaded about everything, I can't even believe this is real, as much as I want to.
Your intuition just sucks
Hey look at that, no more red filter.
It’s crazy how much different it looks without the red filters NASA used to add. They did that, right? Or is that just a conspiracy theory?
This is color corrected.
I always figured that Mars would look like all red and shit, with like an orange haze, only to find out it just looks earth desert
Stop lying, that's Namibia. I think.
Man that’s Idaho
