At 1600 UTC today, the European Space Agency will attempt the first ever livestream from another planet - although the distance from Earth to Mars means there will be a short delay in broadcasting.
A live video feed will be broadcast from Mars for the first time beginning at 1600 UTC today, using a once-obsolete camera aboard the European Space Agency’s Mars Express Orbiter.
ESA’s feed, embedded above, will last for an hour. However, because of the vast distance between Earth and Mars, the images will take 17 minutes to reach us, and a further minute to pass through various receivers and servers on the ground, making it not quite “live”. will transmit a new frame every 50 seconds. This camera normally stores the images it takes and transmits them in a batch every couple of days, so this is the first time ESA is attempting to stream them as they are taken.
