1. Did NASA program the Rover with AI for narrating the images it sends home?

Because I'm liking it already. It's cute.

I like the self-narration

3. Those are the navigation "Hazard Cameras" ... we'll be getting sharper photos very soon.

It's all very exciting, isn't it? I love science! Congratulations to Nasa's Mars 2020 team!!

7. Also, they have dust covers on, for landing protection.

Those will be popped off pretty soon.

Didn't even have the decency to dust itself off for its close-up!
