It's 7:30 a.m. right now in Jezero, and the has been charging its batteries for about an hour. In about 9 hours it will attempt its 37th flight on the Red Planet, having already flown more than 7.5km in total during the 649 Martian days of its life on Mars.

While waiting for the flight to takeoff, here is an animation of flying 8m above ground, surveying an outcrop called Feillefeu down in South Seitah, back on Sol 193

@65dBnoise gosh you're perfecting this technique! Add a flashy intro, sound effects and a credits reel and you're good to go for the baftas 😉

Thanks for sharing!

This is a very effective way to show that the RTE camera isn't taking random snapshots, but is targeting specific views that have been requested by the team on Earth.

The "viewfinder" framing effects are a fine addition: they smooth the transition between cameras perfectly.
