The world watched in eager anticipation February 18 as the Perseverance rover made its descent to the surface of Mars after a nearly seven month voyage through space. The engineers working in NASA's mission control room at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory leapt from their chairs to cheer as confirmation came through that Perseverance had successfully landed in Mars' Jezero Crater.
If you're a Surviving Mars player, then you probably heard some familiar sounds during the stream. During one pre-produced segment aired during NASA's livestream of Perseverance's touchdown, a song from the Surviving Mars soundtrack played in the background as Al Chen, the Mars 2020 entry, descent, and landing lead explained the mission and its complexity.
"Well this soundtrack sure sounds familiar," Surviving Games tweeted the next day, along with a clip. "Honored to have the Surviving Mars theme in such a monumental stream!" Paradox Interactive, which publishes the strategy game, chimed in: "We finally made it! To space!" Both accounts added little rocket ship emoji to punctuate their celebratory tweets.
