Mars in 4K (ULTRA HD)
Explore the Surface of Mars in the Stunning 4K Video. This Mars footage in 4k is rendered from high-resolution images captured by four NASA rovers — Spirit, Curiosity, Opportunity, and Preserevence.
Why Doesn't NASA Record HD Videos from Mars?
While the cameras are high quality, the speed at which rovers can send data to Earth is the biggest challenge. Curiosity can only send data to Earth at 32 kilobits per second.
If the rover can connect to the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, we get cheaper speeds of 2 megabytes per second. However, this link is only available for about 8 minutes per day from Sol or Martian day
As expected, sending HD video at these speeds would take a long time. Since nothing really moves on Mars, it makes more sense to take photos and send them back.
