NASA’s Mars 2020 Rover Artist's Concept #1 (Updated)

NASA’s Mars 2020 mission is scheduled to launch aboard an Atlas V rocket from Launch Complex 41 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida in July 2020. The rover is designed to explore the geology of its landing site seeking signs of habitable conditions on Mars in the ancient past, search for signs of past microbial life itself, and—for the first time—collect and store the most promising samples of Martian rocks and soil for possible return to Earth by a future mission.
