We collected a little over 30 gigabytes of information. Andi. Over 23,000 images of the vehicle descending down to the surface of Mars. Complicate indicates chute deployed. The navigation has confirmed that the parachute has deployed and we're seeing significant deceleration in the velocity heart. Current velocity is 450 m per second, at an altitude of about 12 kilometers from the surface of Mars. Heat shields up. Perseverance has now slowed to subsonic speeds, and the heat shield has been separated. This allows both the radar and the cameras to get their first look at the surface care velocity. It's 145 m per second and an altitude of about 10 Columbia, 9.5 kilometers above the surface. We have started our constant velocity accordion, which means we are conducting the sky crane about to conduct the fight Crane maneuver. Scott can maneuver has started about 20 m off the service. We're getting signals from tomorrow.
