NASA’s Perseverance rover officially landed on Mars in February. Now that it’s there, it’s been taking some time to explore.
On March 4, NASA reported that the car-sized rover began moving around, propelling itself forward about 13 feet. It then turned around and backed up about 8 feet, for a total of 21 feet of movement. This is just the tip of the iceberg for the Martian ground that Perseverance is set to cover over the next two years.
