NASA's Mars rover Perseverance has stumbled upon a unique rock formation in an ancient lakebed, the latest reported discovery in the robot's exploration of the Red Planet.
Perseverance arrived on Mars on Feb. 18 after a six-month journey through space. The rover's landing site was at the Jezero Crater, and "scientists believe the area was once flooded with water and was home to an ancient river delta," according to NASA. The rover is being assisted by Integrity, NASA's Mars helicopter, which made its ninth flight on Mars earlier this month. Integrity made history on April 19 by completing the first controlled flight by an aircraft on a planet other than Earth.More Related News
