ABOUT THE ROVER


Biography:

Nicknamed "Percy", this rover is similar to its predecessor, Curiosity - however it adds a variety of awesome upgrades to test in the martian landscape like oxygen production and a detachable helicopter. This biography will grow as Percy continues its mission to seek out evidence of microbial life and collecting rock/soil samples for return.

Launch Date:

July 30th, 2020

Landing Date:

February 18th, 2021

Rover Cost:

$2.4 billion

Quotes from History

We welcome more nations taking trips to mars and studying it, delivering and sharing its science with the world... that’s what science is all about, of course, it’s a very uniting kind of thing. For the first time ever, we’re going to fly a helicopter on another planet... in the future, it could transform how we do planetary science on other worlds.

Jim Bridenstine, Former head of NASA, under President Donald Trump
