NASA's Perseverance Mars rover took this selfie looking down at one of 10 sample tubes deposited at the sample depot it created in an area nicknamed Three Forks. This image was taken by the WATSON camera on the rover’s robotic arm on Jan. 20, 2023, the 684th Martian day, or sol, of the mission.NASA's Mars Sample Return program has hit several snags in recent months after being told its current $11 billion plan is too expensive.
NASA's Mars sample return plan is getting a major overhaul: 'The bottom line is $11 billion is too expensive', and Johns Hopkins' Applied Physics Laboratory make up the other three, though it isn't yet clear whether the latter will be under the same contract.home.
The Perseverance Mars rover's WATSON camera took this image of the 10th and last tube to be deployed during the creation of the first sample depot on another world, on Jan. 28, 2023, the 690th Martian day, or sol, of the mission. Nelson previously stated that the agency's current MSR plan is too costly and will require too long of a wait.
