NASA의 탐사선 Curiosity가 7년간 찍은 화성사진 44

Here's how Curiosity looked 7 years ago and now

NASA는 지금까지 4대(Sojourner, Opportunity, Spirit, and Curiosity)의 로봇으로 작동하는 화성 탐사선을 

화성에 보내 탐사를 계속해 왔다.

2019년 2월 13일 NASA가 탐사선과의 모든 접촉이 끊어졌을때 탐사선의 임무가 완료되었다고 선언하면서 

Curiosity은 붉은 행성에서 외로운 생존자가 되어 스스로 미지의 땅을 조사하고 탐사하기 위해 표면을 굴러

다니고 있다. 

이 우주선은 2012년 8월 6일에 화성에 처음 착륙하여 수년에 걸쳐 목표를 수행하기 시작했다. 

Curiosity은 탐사를 아주 잘 해냈고 687일의 임무 기간이 무기한으로 연장될 정도로 오랫동안 유지되었다.
