Weighing as much as a small car, a rover named Curiosity rolls
quietly around Mars. Scientific instruments pack its body and
cluster at the end of a mechanical arm. An arrangement of lenses
and instruments tops its mast, like a face. To the many NASA
workers involved in Curiosity's mission on Mars, the rover is not
simply a robot, but an astronaut bravely exploring an alien place.
Curiosity's instruments collect data and its cameras take images of
the Mars landscape, including self-portraits, in vivid color and
detail. As it roams and explores, Curiosity will help find the
answers to such age-old questions as has there ever been life on
Mars? Could there be one day?
