Watch: Nasa's rover successfully touches surface of Mars
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (Nasa) Mars rover Perseverance landed succesfully on the surface of Mars around 2:30 am on Friday, making a historic landing on the red planet. The Nasa Perseverance rover landed at Mars' Jezero Crater nearly seven months after its takeoff to Mars.
Nearly seven months after its takeoff to Mars, Nasa's Perseverance rover has become the fifth Nasa rover ever to touch down on Mars after Sojourner -- twin rovers Spirit and Opportunity and Curiosity.
