Mars rovers and environments

Apple Vision

Meet NASA's Perseverance Rover, on a mission to explore the surface of Mars. Perseverance launched from Florida in 2020 and landed on Mars on February 18, 2021. The rover is collecting samples and analyzing the geology, atmosphere and chemistry of Mars to search for signs of past life in and around Jezero Crater. Launch the Exploring Mars app to bring Perseverance into the room with you. Select key parts of the rover to view photographs and specifications plus learn how they contribute to the groundbreaking science of NASA's Mars Exploration Program. Resize the rover from a small model you can rest on your lap to actual size, and move it anywhere in your space. When you're ready for travel, tap "Take me to Mars" to stand next to Perseverance in Jezero Crater – a faithful reconstruction made from the rover's actual images and data. Stand next to our rover on Mars and fully immerse yourself in the sights and sounds of our nearest planetary neighbor, featuring audio recorded on Mars by Perseverance and the Insight lander.
