Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Video file for media and public use. Final preparations are underway for NASA’s Perseverance rover to collect the first-ever sample of Martian rock for the planned return to Earth. The six-wheeled geologist is searching for a suitable science target in a part of Jezero Crater called the “Cratered Floor Fractured Rough.” This important mission milestone is expected to begin in August 2021.  Perseverance landed in Jezero Crater earlier this year on Feb. 18, went through a thorough post-landing commissioning phase, and kicked off the science phase of its mission on June 1, exploring a 1.5-square-mile (4-square-kilometer) patch of crater floor that may contain Jezero’s deepest and most ancient layers of exposed bedrock.  For more information on the mission go to: https://nasa.gov/perseverance and https://mars.nasa.gov/mars2020/
