I predict that Perseverance will detect life on Mars! Touchdown confirmed š In the image, team members from the Perseverance rover at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory react in mission control after receiving confirmation that the spacecraft has landed successfully on Mars.
Working through incredible difficulties, as well as the technical challenges for launch and landing, the Perseverance rover mission embodies the NASA - and scientist - spirit of overcoming challenges.
This is the first postcard of Perseverance from the Red Planet. The car-sized Perseverance, the most advanced robot ever sent to the Red Planet, aced its "seven minutes of terror" touchdown this afternoon (Feb. 18), alighting gently on an ancient lakebed inside the 28-mile-wide (45 kilometers) Jezero Crater shortly before 4 p.m. EST (2100 GMT).
After a series of instrument and hardware checkouts, Perseverance will start doing what it crossed interplanetary space to do: hunt for signs of ancient Mars life, collect and cache rock samples for future return to Earth and demonstrate some shiny new exploration technologies, among other things.
"I don't think we've had a mission that is going to contribute so much to both science and technology," NASA Acting Administrator Steve Jurczyk told Space.com earlier this week . "It's going to be truly amazing."

Mars has been hollowed out and its cities under ground also its dome cities on the surface of Mars. They have been on Mars since the 60s. The Adamite project started on Mars.
The existence of, "Mars Life, will be no surprise, life on Mars has been a known fact by the elite for decades. Keeping that fact hidden from the masses is just another travesty against society.
Wow well done!
Now they need a base on the moon to study what they bring back so they want bring back space covid and kill us all on earth.
This touchdown is absolutely amazing, Sooooooo much too learn and explore. I'm ecstatic, thinking about all there is to do. I just might fly up and join them(smile). I would tell my family for years I can fly,every night I would fly all over the Earth. In the morning I would awake in my bed.(Please š smile I'm not delusional)
