The Mars Rover Program

The Mars Rover Program involves sending robotic vehicles to explore the surface of Mars. These rovers, like Curiosity and Perseverance, are equipped with cameras, scientific instruments, and tools to analyze the planet's geology, climate, and potential habitability. They help scientists understand Mars' history, search for signs of ancient life, and assess conditions for future human exploration. Operating remotely from Earth with advanced automation, these rovers transmit data back to scientists, providing valuable insights that inform our knowledge of the Red Planet.
