Allow us to reintroduce someone … the name’s Perseverance. With this new name, our Mars 2020

Allow us to reintroduce someone … the name’s Perseverance. With this new name, our Mars 2020 rover has now come to life! Chosen by middle school student Alex Mather, Perseverance helps to remind ourselves that no matter what obstacles we face, whether it’s on the way to reaching our goals or on the way to Mars, we will push through. In Alex’s own words, ⁣⁣“We are a species of explorers, and we will meet many setbacks on the way to Mars. However, we can persevere. We, not as a nation but as humans, will not give up. The human race will always persevere into the future.” ⁣Welcome to the family.⁣ ❤️⁣Make sure to follow us on Tumblr for your regular dose of space: http://nasa.tumblr.com. -- source link
