NASA's Perseverance rover reaches Mars' Jezero Crater rim, set to explore for signs of ancient life.

NASA's Perseverance Mars rover has completed a 3½-month climb to the top of Jezero Crater's rim, ascending 1,640 vertical feet. This achievement marks the start of its new "Northern Rim" campaign, where it will explore up to four geological sites over 4 miles, collecting samples that could provide signs of ancient microbial life on Mars. The mission also aims to pave the way for future human exploration.
