Mars: Perseverance rover set for nail-biting landing here s the rocket science

Author: Andrew Coates (MENAFN - The Conversation) Following seven minutes of terror after it reaches Mars upper atmosphere, NASA s Perseverance rover is expected to land on the surface of the red planet at 20:55 GMT on February 18. This is incredibly hard to do , with only about 40% of missions succeeding. As a member of the team that built the European Space Agency s Rosalind Franklin rover (we made the PanCam , the camera eyes of the rover), which will set off for Mars next year, I will be holding my breath during the landing. There s so much at stake. Not only could the mission unveil some of Mars best-kept secrets, and be a key part of future exploration to return a Mars sample back to Earth, it could also have important lessons for landing Rosalind Franklin.
