About The Site
Mars has always marvelled researchers due to the possibility of its inhabition. NASA in particular, has conducted many missions that aim to gather information of the Martian surface. Mars Science Laboratory (MSL), which led to the creation of the Curiosity rover, is one of them, and that is the mission we have targetted, so that it may be known to all!
