For example, there is also a metal plate with a “family portrait”. According to NASA, Perseverance is “the largest, heaviest, cleanest and most sophisticated six-wheeled robotic geologist ever sent into space,” but its four predecessors must not be forgotten. These are the rovers Soujourner, Spirit, Opportunity and Curiosity.
Perseverance also brought microchips to the red planet with nearly 11 million names that humans sent to NASA when the name was chosen for the probe. There are also 155 essays by the finalists of the competition. In addition, a board depicting Earth and Mars is burned on the board with these microchips. The rays connecting the two planets hide a message written in the Morse code. This is the phrase “Explore as One”.
