January 12, 2021 marked The Curiosity rover’s 3,000th day on Mars since its original touchdown in 2012. The Curiosity will soon be joined by its six-wheeled cousin, Perseverance, on February 18, 2021.
Like NASA’s Curiosity Mission, 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.
