NASA's Perseverance rover landed on Mars last week and is now sending back high-resolution color pictures of the Red Planet. Maneuvering the rover safely is the job of a team of drivers here on Earth. They’re millions of miles away and there’s a pretty long communications delay with Perseverance. So how do they do it? NASA engineer Evan Hilgemann is one of the drivers of the rovers. (Originally aired Jan 26, 2021). (NASA/JPL-Caltech via AP)
