Scientist Ken Williford of this project said, “Are we alone in this vast cosmic desert or is there life elsewhere?” Does life ever, anywhere give favorable conditions? “

Thomas Zurbuchen, Associate Administrator of the Science Mission Directorate at NASA, said on Tuesday, “Perseverance is NASA’s most ambitious Mars rover mission ever. The mission is to find out if there was ever life on Mars before.” We will get the answer to this question from the landing team that will take us to Jajero Crater. “
