(NASA via AP)CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – NASA will offer a live update on their Perseverance rover after landing safely on Mars last week. NASA equipped the spacecraft with a record 25 cameras and two microphones, many of which were turned on during Thursday’s descent. It's the ninth time that NASA has successfully landed on Mars __ and the fifth rover. As it did with 2012's Curiosity rover — still roaming 2,300 miles (3,750 kilometers) away — NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter photographed Perseverance descending beneath its massive parachute.

Perseverance is healthy and working just fine days after landing on Mars. Now we’re getting the first images from the NASA rover -- and they’re stunning. There are a lot of scientific instruments on the rover that we will get to see in action. It also has a “weather station” on it that will analyze the Mars weather.

Here’s a look at how NASA’s Perseverance rover will attempt to land on Mars on Thursday, Feb. 18, 2021. Dr. Roger Weins, a NASA scientist, explained why it’s so difficult to land on the Red Planet. “Partly because of the very thin air on Mars. But with that thin air on Mars, that only slows it down to several hundred mph, and that’s not good enough to land at all. After that, you have to use retro rockets.
