It’s an orbiter, not a lander.
Amal Clooney? That’s fantastic!
Why doesn’t Canada have any space program? 🤔
Not to Mars yet, but yes, Canada have many programs through the Canadian Space Agency 👍🏼
@旮旯北京 Yeah and bring them covid!
旮旯北京 um Canada has a space program. Just look up Canadarm 2
Canada does….a very large and sophisticated one that is decades old with lots of accomplishments. We dont have a launch vehicle or launch program of our own but if you paid attention to this video you will see that this UAE satellite was launched by Japan on a japanese rocket.

Congratulations UAE’ from Indian
China have already booked Mars, moon and Antarctica. Have to look for other planets.
it’s something 😉
I bet it’s gonna crash and burn while entering. Or be really damaged for it to do anything

@RSole9999 Oh i see, i didn’t know it was just an orbiter.
finally you put the text on the top so we can actually see it at the end.
