and then there's nasa says mars 2020 mission that's the one that daniela tears and nicole schmitz of the german aerospace center in berlin are most interested in right now. the perseverance rover is set to land at just 0 crater which is a very exciting place if you look there are lots of craters on mars but this one is very special because there's a river delta on its florida it shows that blowing water entered a body of still water and deposited sediment there it's proof that there was once a lake in the greater distance and where there was water there may have been life. the plan is that the rover will explore the area nicole schmitz is part of a team developing a very advanced camera system mounted on the rovers mast it will film the neighborhood in color and 3 d. . it's so powerful it could make out a fly at the end of a football pitch its job will be to look out for traces of ancient life. substance looking for substances or textures or patterns the only image while life is involved. would be for example a fragment of a fossilized microbe of course we're not reckoning what. it w
