Summary

Description
English: The powered descent stage being assembled for the Mars 2020 mission seen at NASA's JPL on June 10, 2018 in Pasadena, California. This will be the final stage to bring Mars 2020's rover "Perseverance" to the Martian surface from 200 miles an hour, to 2 miles an hour. This will drop the rover through cables and bring it gently to the surface before detaching and flying off in the distance. A similar powered descent stage was built for the Curiosity rover that landed on Mars in 2012.
