Perseverance Looks Back at 'Bright Angel'
One of the navigation cameras aboard NASA's Perseverance rover captured this view as the rover left the "Bright Angel" area of Mars' Jezero Crater on July 30, 2024, the 1,224th Martian day, or sol, of the mission. A key objective for Perseverance's mission on Mars is astrobiology, including the search for signs of ancient microbial life. The rover will characterize the planet's geology and past climate, pave the way for human exploration of the Red Planet, and be the first mission to collect and cache Martian rock and regolith (broken rock and dust). https://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA26372
