Mars 2020 Rover

The Mars 2020 Rover, named Perseverance, is a advanced robotic vehicle designed to explore Mars’ surface. It aims to study the planet’s geology, climate, and potential signs of past microbial life. Perseverance is equipped with scientific instruments to analyze rocks and soil, a camera system for high-resolution imaging, and a system to collect samples for future return to Earth. It also tests new technology, like producing oxygen from the Martian atmosphere and a small helicopter called Ingenuity. The mission helps scientists understand Mars' history and assess its habitability for future exploration.
