MARS 2020

Mars Rover Mars Day 193 - Navigation Camera: NASA's Mars Rover Ingenuity captured this image using its navigation camera on its 13th flyby on September 5, 2021 (Mars Day 193 of the Perspirans rover mission) at local solar time 12: 06:30.

NASA's Ingenuity Helicopter: Flying on Mars is getting more and more difficult

The rotors of the first helicopter to fly on another planet were filled with dust, preventing them from turning

NASA has released high-quality video and audio from Mars for the first time

This is not a simulation. The Perseverance robotic all-terrain vehicle and the crane that lowered it photographed each other and the Martian soil in a way that made it possible to document the landing as if it were a landing on Earth. NASA: We wanted to
This high-resolution image shows one of the six wheels of NASA's Mars Preserver (Persistence) rover, which landed on February 18, 2021. The image was taken by one of Persistence's color hazard detection cameras (Hazcams).

NASA's Persistence Rover sends a glimpse of the descent to the Martian soil and the landing environment

After the successful landing on Thursday, the engineers began to examine the condition of NASA's persistence vehicle on Mars.
The Persistence rover lands using cables dangling from what is known as a "Mars crane". The spacecraft continues on after disconnecting the cables and the vehicle sets off on its own. This was done to save the fuel needed to land such a large spacecraft at the expense of the scientific equipment. Illustration: NASA / JPL-Caltech

Six space missions to look forward to in 2021

Space exploration achieved several milestones in 2020 despite the COVID-19 pandemic, including commercial manned space flights and the return of asteroid samples to Earth. Fascinating tasks are expected in 2021, some of which record breakthroughs
