7 Things to Know about the Perseverance Mars Rover
We’re set to launch the Mars 2020 Perseverance rover mission from Cape Canaveral, Florida, on July 30. The rover is loaded with scientific instruments and advanced technology, making it the largest, heaviest and most sophisticated vehicle ever sent to the Red Planet.
What is Perseverance’s mission and what will it do on Mars? Here are seven things to know:
1. Perseverance draws on the NASA – and scientific – spirit of overcoming challenges
Not only does it have to launch during a pandemic and land on a treacherous planet, it has to carry out its science goals:
Searching for signs of past microbial life
Mapping out the planet’s geology and climate
Collecting rock and other samples for future return to Earth
Paving the way for human exploration
We chose the name Perseverance from among the 28,000 essays submitted during the “Name the Rover” contest. Because of the coronavirus pandemic, the months leading up to the launch in particular have required creative problem solving, teamwork and determination.
2. Perseverance builds on the lessons from other Mars rovers
In 1997, our first Mars rover – Sojourner – showed that a robot could rove on the Red Planet. Spirit and Opportunity, which both landed in 2004, found evidence that Mars once had water before becoming a frozen desert.
Curiosity found evidence that Mars’ Gale Crater was home to a lake billions of years ago and that there was an environment that may have sustained microbial life. Perseverance aims to answer the age-old question – are there any signs that life once existed on Mars?
3. Perseverance will land in a place with high potential to find signs of ancient life
The rover will land in Jezero Crater, a 28-mile wide basin north of the Martian equator. A space rock hit the surface long ago, creating the large hole. Between 3 and 4 billion years ago, a river flowed into a body of water in Jezero the size of Lake Tahoe.
4. Perseverance will also collect important data about Mars’ geology and climate
Mars orbiters have collected images and other data about Jezero Crater from about 200 miles above, but finding signs of past life will need much closer inspection. A rover like Perseverance can look for those signs that may be related to ancient life and analyze the context in which they were found to see if the origins were biological.
5. Perseverance is the first leg of a round trip to Mars
This is the first rover to bring a sample-gathering system to Mars that will package promising samples of rocks and other materials for future return to Earth. NASA and ESA are working on the Mars Sample Return campaign, so we can analyze the rocks and sediment with tools too large and complex to send to space.
6. Perseverance will pave the way for human exploration of the Red Planet
Two packages – one that helps the rover autonomously avoid hazards during landing (TRN) and another that gathers crucial data during the trip through Mars’ atmosphere (MEDLI2) – will help future human missions land safely and with larger payloads on other worlds.
There are two instruments that will specifically help astronauts on the Red Planet. One (MEDA) will provide key information about the planet’s weather, climate and dust activity, while a technology demonstration (MOXIE) aims to extract oxygen from Mars’ mostly carbon-dioxide atmosphere.
7. You get to ride along
Perseverance and other parts of the Mars 2020 spacecraft feature 23 cameras, which is more than any other interplanetary mission in history. Raw images from the camera are set to be released on the mission website.
There are also three silicon chips with the names of nearly 11 million people who signed up to send their names to Mars.
And you can continue to follow the mission on Twitter and Facebook.

The Samsung's Gear S has become thicker and taller than any other SmartWatches ever
Samsung added the next entry to its growing catalog of gadgets with the debut of a new Gear SmartWatch. We have seen the evolution of this from the first Samsung Gear, then crossing the Gear Live and now the world is entering an era of Gear S.

Looking closely, it becomes apparent that the family ties have dominated over the desire to do something new, but these are traditions of Samsung's rectangular watches. Oh no, this is not a caprice of engineers or designers, this form is dictated exclusively by structure of the human body, appropriateness and convenience, that also promotes the transfer to more perfect design of the dial. Concerning the integration of new technologies and techniques the Gear S corresponds to the general spirit of nowadays.
Primarily attracts attention a curved 2-inch Super AMOLED touchscreen with a resolution of 360х480 pixels, that elegantly wraps your wrist. Another nice surprise is the height of the side edge, the thickness of which is not comparable to the progenitors. There are also more nonpresumable things to find inside, such as signs of intelligence presented with a dualcore processor 1.0GHz. 512MB of RAM, along with its own 4GB of storage. Among other things there are 2G/3G, WiFi b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.1, A-GPS and USB 2.0.
Samsung says that the Gear S features a protection against dust and water. It will help you stay connected even while taking a shower. It is dubious privilege but it could be checked only in practice. Another interesting fact is that the battery contains 300mAh charge which should last for a few days.
Of course, the Samsung Gear S SmartWatch will also work jointly with your smartphone using all inherent advantages of such a tandem. Bracelet easily copes with the tasks of vibration notifying about the incoming calls and messages, some applications of Health, Running, Voice and regular for these devices apps like News, Weather, gallery, Email, media player, notifications and etc. The great thing is an ability to use the device as a stand-alone handset through its own SIM and headset.
There’s no information about the details of the launch date, although it can be assumed to release in October with a $400 price tag. Samsung does not want and does not like to make new items cheap, becoming a tradition. They make a big step today that undoubtedly is a part of a decisive strategy leading to wide production of flexible displays, which will have a possibility to be locked from both of display edges, not using the bracelet.
