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. Explore with Us
Raw images of Mars taken by the Perseverance rover and Ingenuity Mars helicopter in Jezero Crater.
The Mars 2020 Perseverance Rover searches for signs of ancient microbial life, to advance NASA's quest to explore the past habitability of Mars. The rover is collecting core samples of Martian rock and soil (broken rock and soil), for potential pickup by a future mission that would bring them to Earth for detailed study.
The year is 2024 on Earth, and Year 37 on Mars, and the Perseverance rover is continuing its exploration of the carbonate-rich terrain of the Margin Unit in Jezero Crater.
3.2 Understand Mars as a System through Investigations of the Global Environment Conduct investigations through orbital, aerial, and landed spacecraft to illuminate the ways in which individual components of the Martian global environment –the atmosphere, hydrosphere, cryosphere, and geosphere –are
Advanced Filters Thumbnails. Thumbnails are reduced-resolution versions of the original full-size or subframe images, occasionally used by the mission team to prioritize downlinks of the larger images.
The 2001 Mars Odyssey mission was the first spacecraft to make a global map of the chemical elements and minerals that make up the Martian surface. The spacecraft also holds the record for the longest continually active mission in orbit around a planet other than Earth.
The Mars Exploration Rover mission is part of NASA’s Mars Exploration Program, a long-term, multi-mission effort to un-derstand Mars as a potential place for past or present life (its habitability), to seek signs of life, and to prepare for human exploration. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of the
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.
