First Flight of the Ingenuity Mars Helicopter [video]

A little video editing would be nice.

It's almost like NASA doesn't realize many people watch these videos.

I like watching behind the sceen stuff, but I also want NASA to come off in the best light.

The video had a production value of a subpar PBS late night video.

NASA has a duty to promote the agency too. There's a PR value to everything, especially when using public money.

(I want to give NASA more funds some days. Other days, I would rather give it to Musk. I'm not sure anymore who will use the money better.)

Relax a little, it literally just happened, better things are coming. And don't watch the live feed if what you want is a Hollywood production.

Would you rather want these funds to be spent on PR team and video editing or on missions?

I'd rather NASA had the funds for a little production value.

You can make the same whataboutist argument for why we shouldn't even be on Mars.
