The Sounds of Mars

The Mars rover "Perseverance" has two microphones built into it.

Here are a series of six short sound segments from the NASA website "Sounds of Mars" at: mars.nasa.gov/mars2020/participate/sounds/

The fourth one sounds exactly like an ocean and may provide additional evidence for life on Mars.

@Pat I'll be impressed when they get sounds working up there! 🌬️ 🤢

@dv8
You need to listen to it to get the joke...

@dv8
All of those sounds are actually from that NASA "Sounds of Mars" web site, so everything I said was (mostly) true, thus

I didn't mention that the sounds are actually Earth sounds that have been altered to sound like they would on Mars (which is what that site is all about).
