The Perseverance rover has begun a long climb up the rim of Jezero Crater .

The rover will gain about 1,000 feet ( 300 meters ) in elevation when it summits the rim toward the end of 2024 .

The crater rim will provide a window into the earliest period of Mars ’ history.

It could reveal evidence of hot springs that might have supported ancient microbial life.

Perseverance can watch the terrain as it drives, and if its wheels slip too much, the rover will stop and “call home for Mommy , wait to be told what to do and we’ll figure it out on the ground,” Lee says.

The rover remains in excellent condition, with “no showstoppers in any way to say we can’t continue operating this vehicle for many more years ”.
