June 8th 1972
The Sojourner Rover, part of NASA's Mars Pathfinder mission, was the first successful robotic rover to operate on Mars, landing on the planet in July 1997. It conducted scientific experiments, analyzed soil and rock samples, and transmitted data back to Earth, contributing valuable insights into Martian geology and atmosphere. Sojourner traveled over 100 meters on the Martian surface, demonstrating the feasibility of mobile exploration on other planets. Its successful operation paved the way for future rover missions on Mars.
it was the great rover
Not yet. But I plan to.
The mission in the chain of missions built in Carmel is the San Carlos Borromeo de Carmelo mission
Mission San Luis Rey is the 18th mission in the Mission chain
Once it is launched from Earth and reaches space, its mission is to accurately navigate to the moon, soft land on it, and begin roving.
The lunar rover was first used on the Apollo mission 15.
the mars rover Spirit found water or ice on Mars
The Spirit rover, part of NASA's Mars Exploration Rover mission, had a development cost of approximately $400 million. This figure includes the rover's construction, launch, and operational expenses for its mission on Mars. Spirit was launched in June 2003 and operated until 2010, far exceeding its initial 90-day mission.

The Soviet Union's "Mars 2" had a "Prop-M"rover on board the lander but the mission failed when the lander impacted into the Martian surface .
Yes, the moon rover remains on the moon's surface. The moon rover's mission is to explore and gather data about the lunar environment, and it does not return to Earth.
The rover that landed in September is called "Perseverance." It successfully touched down on Mars on February 18, 2021, as part of NASA's Mars 2020 mission. However, if you are referring to a different rover that landed in September, please provide more context or specify the mission.
Range Rover! Rolls Royce!
The Flight Director of the Mars Curiosity Mission, Bobak Ferdowsi, is best known for landing a two-ton rover on Mars.
The Mars rover Opportunity was launched on July 7, 2003 and landed on Mars on January 25, 2004 as part of NASA's Mars Exploration Rover mission.
Yes, Neil Armstrong did not drive the lunar rover during the Apollo 11 mission. The lunar rover was used on later Apollo missions in which Armstrong did not participate.
