 NASA: Next Mars Rover Will Have 23 Eyes ; On Mars 2020 Mission                                                                                    By NASA // December 28, 2017  polene                                                                                                                 A selection of the 23 cameras on NASA   2020 Mars rover. Many are improved versions of the cameras on the Curiosity rover, with a few new additions as well. UPDATED AT 4:15 p.m. PDT to correct the number of EDL cameras shown in the image.  NASA Image  NASA  鈥?When NASA   Mars Pathfinder touched down in 1997, it had fi stanley cup ve cameras: two on a mast that popped up from the lander, and three on NASA   first rover, Sojourner.Since then, camera technology has taken a quantum leap. Photo sensors that were improved by the space program have become commercially ubiquitous. Cameras have shrunk in size, increased in quality and are now carried in every cellphone and laptop.That same evolution has returned to space. NASA   Mars 2020 mission will have more eyes than any rover before it: a grand total of 23, to create sweeping panoramas, reveal obstacles, study the atmosphere, and assist science instruments. They will provide  hydrojug tumbler dramatic views during the rover   descent to Mars and be the first to capture images of a parachute as it opens on another planet. There will even be a camera inside the rover   body, which will study samples as they ;re sto Eavb Kicking a Pan of Flaming Gasoline Is the Best and Worst Idea
 Alphabet owned autonomous delivery drone company Wing on Friday released footage of a first of its kind delivery drone command center. The space resembles a military war room but rather than monitor Predator drones dropping bombs over villages, Wing technicians will watch Uber like GPS routes to ensure flying Doritos and Tylenol get to their intended recipients. The Wing technicians, referred to as  Pilots in Command,  sit in a central office in Texas where they can observe feeds of deliveries occurring across multiple time zones. Multiple monitors fill the room showing PICs the status of various deliveries. Since the drones run their routes autonomously, PICs dont have access to live camera feeds or a joystick to maneuver the machine. Instead, the PICs observe the drones GPS coordinates on a map and keep track of variations in weather and air traffic.  The aircraft robots are very good at monitoring themselves,  a Wing PIC sa owala tumbler id in a video posted by the company.  All they need to do is just provide alerts to the pilots.   As of now, The Verge notes, Wing drones making deliveries from Walgreens have a 4.5 mile authorized delivery range, though Wing says the drones could technically pull off a range of about six miles. That range means Wing drones, as of now, operate within a radius of 50,000 potentially stanley cup  eligible homes. The actual port stanley us ion of those homes that have any interest in actually receiving drone deliveries, however, remains unclear. The drones themselves are parked on w
