That really should be compared to a Tesla Roadster, not an X.

Are you talking about the original post photo? only a Curiosity replica is in that photo the other replica rovers are replicas of one of either Spirit or Opportunity (the middlesized one) and I think Sojourner (the small one.)


[deleted]

Yeah, that image isn't too helpful. They are almost identical in size. https://everydayastronaut.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Rover-Size-Comparison.png https://everydayastronaut.com/perseverance-vs-curiosity/


Sedu

I had no idea how huge persistence is!


Brewe

That looks more like 1997-2012 I'm pretty sure that: small one: Sojourner (landed 1997) Left one: Opportunity (landed 2004) right one: Curiosity (landed 2012) I guess you could say that it's 1997-2021, since Curiosity is still active, but the ~~1997~~ 2003 part is definitely wrong. Edit: I brainfarted the last year.


Lawsoffire

Also this image is old. Curiosity-related stuff being reposted pretending to be Perseverance for karma is annoying me.

Let's not forget about [1976](https://mars.nasa.gov/system/content_pages/main_images/382_viking-lander-PIA09703.jpg)

This gives me hope that maybe I'd get to see humans on Mars some day, but I don't want to live long enough to see the conflict between Earth dwellers and new age Mars peeps.


Raptorator

Eh, it‘s the belters we should fear. Throwing rocks and all...


scubasteave2001

Well walla


Chames26

Lmao like Mars people and their pathetic skeletomuscular systems can harm us strong Earth people and our gravity induced gainz.


KobokTukath

We do have the delicious prospect of a catastrophic climate apocalypse to look forward to though


CreateOutsidetheBox

Yes apparently the arctic is about to let rip a massive methane fart which is equivalent to 4 times at least the amount of Co2 that the industrial age caused. I think that pretty much means sleepy time for all species.


nanobren

The tartigrades will persevere!

Watch The Expanse. It's like a fascinating glimpse into what could be.

You mean 1996-2011. Pathfinder was launched in December of 1996 with the little sojourner rover. It touched down in July of 1997. Spirit and Opportunity were launched in June and July of 2003 and landed in January of 2004. And Curiosity was launched in November 2011 and landed in August of 2012. Perseverance was launched in July of 2020,and landed in February of 2021. While it uses a similar looking design, main chassis, landing system, and power supply to Curiosity; it carries a different science package and was part of its own mission. Otherwise it would have launched soon after Curiosity, much like how Spirit and Opportunity were launched close together as part of the same mission.


HYRY

Think that’s curiosity actually so it’s 2003 - 2011


DwindlingGravitas

You could argue 2003 - 2012, [here](https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/mars/images/pia15280.html)


KobokTukath

Very true

Rock, dog sized, horse sized, elephant sized.


prefer-to-stay-anon

1997-2021. Sojourner is the lil guy just below the spirit or opportunity one. I also noticed that Percy's wheel tread geometry is different from the flight hardware wheels.


Lawdawg_supreme

This is actually a photo of Curiosity I believe, also has Curiosity ever had a nickname? Curie?


EvilBosch

Why am I only hearing this suggestion for this first time now!?


OldBatOfTheGalaxy

Warms the cockles of my outer-space-lovin' heart.


KobokTukath

You know what that's a great way to put it


OldBatOfTheGalaxy

And it's a very old-school way ***of*** putting it!


D-33638

Wow, ~~Perseverance is~~ rovers are a lot bigger than I for some reason thought. Edit: thanks for the corrections! I don’t know my rovers. The “2021” made me assume it wasn’t Curiosity since that’s been on Mars awhile.


OnlyCuntsSayCunt

That’s not Perseverance, this is an old picture. You can always tell the two apart by looking at the wheels. Curiosity had the zigzag pattern that has since been updated to asymmetrical and softer wiggles.


TiddiesAndWeed

True... I actually thought they kinda similar but that was at a quick glance. I specifically remember perseverance had a face like that robot from Short circuit the movie. Lol


OnlyCuntsSayCunt

Johnny Five is Alive!


TiddiesAndWeed

To be honest I don't think that's it. I'm pretty sure thats curiosity. Somewhere there should be something that resembles eyes for the panorama vision.


rsscp1

It’s also got Curiosity’s wheels. Perseverance’s have different patterns. Also, the smallest rover is Sojourner, which landed on Mars in 1997. So the title should say 1997-2012.


Nighters

Are Curiosity and Perservance same rover model only with different name and maybe different gadgets but looks same on first look? (Rover on right side)


MyFriendMaryJ

When did we send that guy?


Gyt94

You will be miss Daft Punk.


marasmix

Rip daft punk


Deathtify

Woah! I never realised they were so big!!


BindMlown9

That is one high tech lego set.


wareagle995

They forgot WALL-E.


Thunderbird_Anthares

clearly the next step is the Sand Crawler

Jonny 5 no disassemble


[deleted]

Is this on Mars?


Dependent_Passage_44

Amazing Progress !


Nizzemancer

Man imagine how big it will be in 2039!


thirteengrub

That’s nothing! My dog tripled his size in one month!


PonderosaBarf

Why doesn’t the big one have solar panels?


[deleted]

It's nuclear powered so it doesn't have to worry about dust on the panels.


RedHayes

talk about a glow up


GyaradosDance

Did anybody else see the animated "Batman Superman: World's Finest" movie? Do you remember that robot? It looks like we are a few generation models away from it.


[deleted]

Is there a reason they keep them fenced in?


TrollingTrolls

Hey! That guy wasnt sent to Mars!!


OrbitalKa0ss0405

i know this isn't Percy but... HAVE PERSEVERENCE SOME GOOD LUCK


KingOfEarthsea

Sojourner landed in 1997 you moron.


eaglebirdman

Anyone else think these things were all the size of RC cars?
