The ground data team is waiting for the Martian rover landing, Thursday, February 18, 2021, at ISTB4. The rover Perseverance is the most sophisticated vehicle NASA has ever sent to the red planet. Its goal is to collect carefully selected and documented rock and sediment samples for future return to Earth. It will search for signs of ancient microbial life, characterize the planet’s geology and climate, with the ultimate goal of paving the way for human exploration beyond the moon.
