Perseverence will land in Jezero crater to study the past environment of Mars using scientific instruments specialised in studying soil and materials on Jezero's delta, which once saw large flows of water pass through millions of years ago. Recreated in Inkscape 0.92, based off imagery featured in JPL's Mars 2020 store.
[3] [4] [5] Sky crane is "an eight-rocket jetpack attached to the rover". [6] This system is also much more precise: while the Mars Exploration Rovers could have landed anywhere within their respective 93-mile by 12-mile (150 by 20 kilometer) landing ellipses, Mars Science Laboratory landed within a 12-mile (20-kilometer) ellipse.
