Mars, as demonstrated in the image captured by the probe’s Star Tracker, is ahead of us, leaving Saturn and Jupiter behind. The Hope probe is officially 100 million km into its journey to the Red Planet. ** The UAE Hope mission takes a photo of Mars, where it will go into orbit in February: Mars ahead!

You can also fly formation with Mars 2020 or check the relative velocity between Mars and Earth or, say, the dwarf planet Pluto A view of the Mars 2020 mission in the Eyes on the Solar System simulation. “If you want to follow along with us on our journey, that’s the place to be.”Įyes doesn’t just let you see the distance between the Red Planet and the spacecraft at this very moment. “Eyes on the Solar System visualizes the same trajectory data that the navigation team uses to plot Perseverance’s course to Mars,” said Fernando Abilleira, the Mars 2020 mission design and navigation manager at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California. But with NASA’s Eyes on the Solar System, you can follow in real time as humanity’s most sophisticated rover – and the Ingenuity Mars Helicopter traveling with it – treks millions of miles over the next six months to Jezero Crater. The last time we saw NASA’s Mars 2020 Perseverance rover mission was on July 30, 2020, as it disappeared into the black of deep space on a trajectory for Mars. ** Monitor NASA’s Perseverance rover as it travels to Mars: Follow NASA’s Perseverance Rover in Real Time on Its Way to Mars A sampling of recent articles, videos, and images from space-related science news items (find previous roundups here):
