Abstract

THERE IS A lot that Nasa's Perseverance rover has on its to-do list. Flying helicopters is only a small part of it. The rover, fitted with seven cutting-edge instruments for analysing rocks, the atmosphere and weather, is ultimately searching for signs of past and present life on Mars. But it will not do it on its own. The Perseverance mission is only the first step in a much greater project. Using its small drill, Perseverance will excavate promising pieces of Martian soil and store them in small tubes on the planet's surface for another rover to retrieve at the end of this decade.

要求隔离:在火星上寻找生命
美国国家航空航天局(Nasa)的“毅力号”探测器的任务清单上有很多事情要做。驾驶直升机只是其中的一小部分。该探测器配备了7种尖端仪器,用于分析岩石、大气和天气,最终目的是寻找火星上过去和现在存在生命的迹象。但它不会自己做到这一点。毅力计划只是一个更大计划的第一步。毅力号将使用它的小型钻头挖掘有希望的火星土壤,并将它们储存在火星表面的小管道中,以便在本十年末另一个火星车取回。
