After months of carefully planned maneuvers and extrication attempts, NASA announced that the rover was stuck. In 2009, NASA’s Spirit Rover got one of its wheels stuck in soft soil. NASA doesn’t seem worried about it, though otherwise, they would’ve changed the design to prevent it.Īt least one Mars rover ended due to problems with its wheels, but not because a rock got stuck. MSL Curiosity had a rock stuck in its wheel in June 2017.
The cameras create 3D views of the surroundings that help the rover make its own decisions without consulting with the rover team on Earth on every move. The Hazard Cameras help evaluate the hazards in front of and behind the rover, like large boulders, deep trenches, or dunes. When the rover is driving, it makes periodic stops to let the Hazard Cameras survey the immediate surroundings. The rover’s Front Left Hazard Avoidance Camera A captured the image. Perseverance captured this image on February 25th, 2022. The Image of the Week is selected by public input. The image of the stone was recently selected as the “Image of the Week” for the Perseverance mission. It looks like the Perseverance rover has an unwanted passenger, a rock stuck inside one of its wheels. This image was acquired on Febru(Sol 362) at the local mean solar time of 14:24:43. NASA’s Mars Perseverance rover acquired this image of the area in front of it using its onboard Front Left Hazard Avoidance Camera A.
