NASA’s Mars rover Perseverance snags 7th Red Planet rock sample

NASA’s Perseverance rover now has seven Mars rock samples in its collection.

The car-sized robot drilled into another Martian rock and socked away the resulting core, mission team members announced via Twitter today (March 8). It’s the seventh drilled sample that Perseverance has collected since touching down on the floor of the Red Planet’s Jezero Crater in February 2021.
