Perseverance Captures Intriguing 'Googly Eye' on Mars

CNN  

The Perseverance rover captured a video of a 'googly eye' on Mars during a recent solar eclipse. The eclipse lasted about 30 seconds, which made the minutes-long solar eclipses seen from Earth seem epic. The rover's latest observation carries on the tradition of Mars rovers that have served as the few spectators to glimpse — and record — a Martian …

The Pathfinder charts the path out for Mars rovers

The Hindu  

Martian rovers are remote-controlled motor vehicles that are designed to travel the Martian surface and help us better understand our neighbouring red planet. The first Martian rover and, in fact, the first wheeled vehicle to be used on any other planet in the solar system was NASA’s Sojourner. Part of NASA’s Mars Pathfinder mission, it helped NASA develop foundational technologies …
