The Curiosity rover snapped another selfie while collecting drill samples at the “Mary Anning” locale on Mars. The Curiosity will then move to the Mount Sharp region, which scientists hope it will reach by 2021. This will be the same year its six-wheeled cousin, Perseverance, will land inside the Jezero Crater of the Red Planet.
Like Curiosity, our high-temperature,HAYNES® 230® alloy is used in the descent thrusters of the Sky Crane vehicle that will lower the Perseverance to the Martian surface.
We are proud to be a part of another historic space exploration program.
