Internet sleuths have uncovered a hidden message left by NASA on the inside of the parachute that landed Perseverance on Mars - it says 'Dare Mighty Things' in binary. The code was written into the lining of the parachute, made from a custom material crafted in Devon, and kept under wraps until it was deployed on February 18. Nobody outside a core group within NASA knew what the message was until it was unveiled to the public when the agency shared new images and a video showing the 'seven minutes of terror' landing, including a view of the inside of the parachute.

Pure joy poured out of mission control at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory Thursday as the Perseverance rover's team celebrated a successful landing on Mars. It's a moment to be preserved and played on infinite loop -- those seconds where anxiety dissipates in the face of hope and possibility coming together.
