In the image below, if you look closely, you can see the white specifications in the middle of the photo. Sobek was persistence of NASA exploring the South Seitak area at Jezero crater on Mars. Images are taken from orbit around Mars by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) NASA. Hirise is a camera on MRO, also known as a high-resolution imaging experiment.
Hirise is a scientific instrument operated by researchers from the University of Arizona in Tucson. It was built by Ball Aerospace & Technologies Corp. in Boulder, Colorado. Perseverance seems to operate in a very hard area, with many rorses and valleys seen in the picture.
The purpose of the key mission for perseverance is to look for signs of ancient microbial life on the red planet. Rover also works to learn more about geology and climate on Mars in the distant past. Data collected by Rover will be combined with data from Rovers and other spacecraft to help NASA prepare for the human mission in the future to Mars.
Perseverance will collect stones and regolith samples from Mars which will eventually be returned to earth for further study. Along with perseverance, NASA also operates Mars’s Ingenuit Helicopters. The helicopter was the first aircraft to fly on the extraterrest planet and helped the persistence dispute team and select the location for Rover to learn in depth.
This month NASA will not be able to send orders to every spacecraft in or around Mars because of conjunction. During conjunction, Earth and Mars are on the opposite side of the sun and every command sent can be damaged, producing unexpected space behavior. NASA will be able to continue the shipping order in mid-October.
