All I'm saying is that any sort of real-time interactive Mars drone piloting experience just wouldn't work. Imagine playing Mario Kart but it would take 8 minutes from you pressing left on the analog stick for your kart to turn to the left, and another 8 minutes for the screen to show you that your kart turned to the left
It'd probably make more sense to record a bunch of data on Mars and then creating a virtual VR experience based on that (We could probably already do that tbh). Or maybe having rovers with 360 VR recording equipment doing regular preprogrammed tours and then showing the recordings to people afterward.
Love loading into the Mars Robot lobby and seeing the 480000 ms ping
So you have to wait
