NASA presented at the Kennedy Space Center the rover that was set up to explore the planet Mars.
The vehicle has all-terrain wheels and is more than a mean of transport, it is a laboratory on wheels because it is equipped with navigation and communication systems and is able to create and maintain the atmosphere necessary for the survival of the astronauts.
The vehicle has an electric motor, solar panels and a battery of 700 volts, and is divided into two parts. The front is to observe and recognize the territory, the back is a real laboratory that will allow the astronauts to analyze what arises during exploration of the terrain.
It measures 28 feet long, 14 feet wide and 11 feet tall, and could go 60 to 70 mph.
