NASA’s Perseverance rover carries cutting-edge tech to Mars

Al Jazeera  

In a crater left by an ancient lake, the Perseverance rover will hunt for traces of microbial life, launch Mars’s first helicopter and gather rock samples to send back home. Then, like NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover before it, Perseverance will be lowered to the surface by a hovering “space crane” equipped with retrorockets. Perseverance will be bringing microphones to Mars for the first time, said Sylvestre Maurice, deputy principal investigator for the mission’s SuperCam suite, which comprises a camera, laser and spectrometers. “Liquid oxygen is an excellent rocket propellant for the return trip on eventual human missions,” explained Jeff Sheehy, chief engineer at NASA’s Space Technology Mission Directorate.
