Aaron Yazzie and others explain how, by scooping dirt and drilling rocks, rovers are digging deeper into the mysteries of Mars.

NASA is building the first sample depot on Mars after choosing a spot called Three Forks to drop some of the Martian rock samples the Perseverance rover collected so far. Read the article to know more details.

NASAs Perseverance rover is set to cache its first Mars sample in the next few days, the first of 10 it will drop over a roughly 30-day span.

The sights and sounds collected by Perseverance so far can help us understand what the rover will pursue next, and why that’s important to its search for ancient life.

Perseverance collected another drilled-out core of a Martian rock dubbed "Rochette," sealing the sample in its designated titanium tube on Wednesday (Sept. 8).

Far from a failure, the sampling might actually offer tantalizing clues about the geology—and potential past life—of the Red Planet.

The names of Jakob van Zyl, a brilliant engineer and manager who helped send spacecraft across the solar system, are now part of the Perseverance rover’s mission. Their names now designate where the...
