The drive, which lasted about 33 minutes, propelled the rover forward four meters, where it then turned in place 150 degrees to the left and backed up 2.5 meters into its new temporary parking space, Xinhua news agency reported.

As part of this Mars Ascent Propulsion System (MAPS) contract, Northrop Grumman Systems will provide propulsion support and products for spaceflight missions at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Centre in Huntsville, Alabama, the US space agency said on Thursday.

According to a report in Space.com on Wednesday, the deployment of wind sensor can be understood from the before-and-after pictured snapped by the robot's navigation cameras.

The new images of the iceberg's big break were captured by the European Space Agency's (ESA) Copernicus Sentinel-1 mission, an Earth-observing project made up of two orbiting satellites: Sentinel-1A and Sentinel-1B.

The recent achievement of NASA's rover safe and successful landing was shown through a virtual tour to the students.

SJSU offers 145 Bachelor's and Master's degrees with 108 concentrations and five credential programmes with 19 concentrations.

Over the last two years, 150 students from all around India participated in this two month long campaign to find asteroids.

The launch service contract for the Time-Resolved Observations of Precipitation Structure and Storm Intensity with a Constellation of SmallSats (TROPICS) mission is a firm fixed-price contract valued at $7.95 million, NASA said on Friday.

The newly released panorama reveals the crater rim and cliff face of an ancient river delta in the distance, NASA said on Wednesday.

Nine federal agencies and about 100 private sector companies were compromised as a result of the SolarWinds hack, the White House said last week.

The Perseverance rover landed last Thursday near an ancient river delta in Jezero Crater to search for signs of ancient microscopic life.

The Perseverance, the most advanced astrobiology laboratory ever sent to another world, streaked through the Martian atmosphere and landed safely on the floor of a vast crater, its first stop on a search for traces of ancient microbial life on the Red Planet. Let’s read more about the mission and the developments so far… Mars […]

With NASA’s rover landing on Mars and spacecraft from the UAE and China entering its orbit, the Red Planet comes under human microscope

While NASA's Mars Curiosity rover sent back a stop-motion movie of its descent, Perseverance's cameras are intended to capture video of its touchdown and this new still image was taken from that footage

The students were mesmerized from the moment they began watching. It was exciting for the students to tour around the world with just a click of a mouse.

"Good things come to those who persevere. Congrats @NASA and @NASAPersevere on a successful landing!" Google tweeted.

"Touchdown confirmed! Perseverance is safely on the surface of Mars, ready to begin seeking the signs of past life," cheered Mohan, wearing a mask from the NASA headquarters in the US.

Packed with groundbreaking technology, the Mars 2020 mission launched on July 30, last year, from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida, US.

Engineers at NASA's mission control in California erupted with joy when confirmation of touchdown came through, the BBC reported on Thursday.

Perseverance is NASA's most ambitious Mars rover mission yet, focused scientifically on finding out whether there was ever any life on Mars in the past
