'Perseverance' Rover To Land On Mars Thursday

The video discusses a highly anticipated Mars Rover mission aimed at searching for evidence of past life on Mars. The Rover will collect samples and return to Earth in 10 years. Scientists are looking for biosignatures, which could be morphological, chemical, or mineralogical. The video also explains the Entry Descent and Landing (EDL) phase, a critical 7-minute sequence where the spacecraft slows down to land on Mars. Viewers are encouraged to watch the live coverage of the landing on Newsy.
