On February 18 2020, after a journey of 293 million miles and seven months, and a nerve-racking plunge to the alien surface, NASA’s Perseverance Rover successfully touched down on Mars. The landing was announced in mission control at the headquarters of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California at 3:55 P.M. EST (12:55 P.M. PST).
NASA has launched the Mars 2020 mission, from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida on July 30, 2020. The mission marks an ambitious first step in the aim to collect the sample of the Red Planet and return them to Earth.
The mission of NASA’s Perseverance Rover is ambitious, to search for a sign of the ancient lifespan on Mars. Perseverance Rover will be the first among NASA’s five rovers to sniff from one place to another place for traces of aliens and their inhabitants of a world.
NASA Administrator Steve Jurczyk said on the press call, “This landing is one of those pivotal moments for NASA, the United States, and space exploration globally when we know we are on the cusp of discovery and sharpening our pencils, so to speak, to rewrite the textbooks,”. He also added, Our journey has been from following the water to seeing whether this planet was habitable and finding complex chemicals,”
Photographs shared by NASA, the photographs were taken by hazard cameras, the camera is attached to the rover, the pictures are black and white. Photos were taken with shelters still attached to the camera lens system for their shield. advanced pictures from the rover will be plentiful and impressive. The image shows the heartening shadow of the Perseverance Rover itself on the alien’s surface. The photographs will help the mission scientist to identify exactly where in the landing precinct the rover touched down.
The software used to operate the Perseverance Rover is very different than the previous curiosity rover, the Perseverance rover will gather 20 closed samples of the Martian dust and rocks. The sample of the martian soil and rock will be established separately in a “cache” on Red Planet. The NASA team is building innovative software to run the rover. The software will be updated with progress all over the mission.
The Mars 2020 Perseverance rover manages all of its regular activities more proficiently to balance its on-site science measurement, and also managing the new sample operation. The spacecraft is also collecting the sample for possible future analysis.
