   • The Perseverance rover draws on the NASA – and scientific – spirit of overcoming challenges. The rover has a tough mission. Not only does it have to land on a treacherous planet, it has to work on its science goals: searching for signs of ancient microbial life, characterizing the planet’s geology and climate, collecting carefully selected rock and sediment samples for future return to Earth, and paving the way for human exploration beyond the Moon.
   • Perseverance builds on the lessons of other Mars rovers. NASA’s modest first rover – Sojourner – demonstrated in 1997 that a robot could rove on the Red Planet.
   • The rover will be landing in a place with high potential for finding signs of past microbial life. Jezero Crater is 28 miles (45 kilometers) wide and sits on the western edge of Isidis Planitia, a giant basin just north of the Martian equator dug out long ago when a space rock hit the surface.
   • Perseverance will also be collecting important data about Mars’ geology and climate. Mars orbiters have been collecting images and other data from Jezero Crater from about 200 miles (322 kilometers) above, but finding signs of ancient life on the surface will require much closer inspection.

   Jul 30, 2020 · Jezero Crater tells a story of the on-again, off-again nature of the wet past of Mars. More than 3.5 billion years ago, river channels spilled over the crater wall and created a lake. Scientists see evidence that water carried clay minerals from the surrounding area into the crater lake.

   Perseverance also has a unique goal of collecting and caching samples of Mars rock and regolith--broken rock and dust--for possible future return to Earth. With these samples and ongoing exploration, scientists hope to advance the search for signs of past life on Mars and gain insights into the planet's evolution.

   Why is the Mars 2020 rover called 'Perseverance'?

   • Perseverance is an especially apt name for the rover, given that the Mars 2020 team had to deal with a global pandemic in the leadup to launch, NASA officials said. "Yes, it's curiosity that pulls us out there, but it's perseverance that does not let us give up," Zurbuchen told reporters shortly after the name was announced.
