Mars 2020 rover mission

Mars 2020 rover mission

Inside 2020, NASA deploys the latest in some Mars rovers. In order to save lots of costs, the design is good earlier Curiosity mission – which arrived in 2012 – but carries an alternative scientific payload. This time, the key objectives are:

*     to look regarding signs of past life

*     collect samples for come back to Earth

*     demonstrate technology for individual exploration

The mission accomplishes many high-priority planetary science goals. Over 30 types of rock cores and soil are usually captured for more definitive analysis in laboratories back in the world. The rover takes measurements and uses technology to aid designers of a human trip understand hazards posed by Martian airborne dirt and dust. It also demonstrates how to get CO2 for on-site conversion directly into oxygen and rocket fuel, while also performing a fresh and improved form of accurate landing: critical for eventual human exploration on top. Overall, this rover is an important step towards the agency's long-term aim of sending humans to Mars inside the 2030s
