Mars - NASA Science
Mars is one of the most explored bodies in our solar system, and it's the only planet where we've sent rovers to explore the alien landscape. NASA missions have found lots of evidence that Mars was much wetter and warmer, with a thicker atmosphere, billions of years ago.
The Mars Exploration Rover Mission. Spirit and Opportunity are identical twin robotic rov-ers that have gone far beyond their original scientific objectives to rewrite our understanding of the early his-tory of Mars. NASA sent these two “robotic geologists” on a 90-day mission to search for geological clues

Perseverance Rover Approaching Mars: This illustration shows NASA’s Mars 2020 spacecraft carrying the Perseverance rover as it approaches Mars. Hundreds of critical events must execute perfectly and exactly on time for the rover to land on Mars safely.
Mars Exploration Rovers: Spirit and Opportunity - NASA Science
2004年1月3日 · This infographic highlights NASA’s twin robot geologists, the Mars Exploration Rovers (MER) Spirit and Opportunity. The rovers landed on the Red Planet in 2004, in search of answers about the history of water on Mars.
Like a human field geologist, each Mars Exploration Rover has the capabilities to scout its sur roundings for interesting rocks and soils, to move to those targets and to examine their composition and structure. Spirit and Opportunity have identical suites of five scientific instruments: a panoramic camera pro

Mars Exploration Rover Mission: Press Release Images: Spirit
2004年4月8日 · A traverse map for NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Spirit traces the path Spirit drove during its prime mission of 90 sols. The base image for this map was taken seconds before landing by Spirit's downward-looking descent image motion estimation system camera.
NASA's Mars Exploration Rover project kicks off by launching the first of two unique robotic geologists, as early as June 8. The identical rolling rovers see sharper images,
Landing safely is the first step for three months of Mars exploration by each rover. Before rolling off its lander, each rover will spend a week or more unfolding itself, rising to full height, and scanning surroundings.
