NASA’s Perseverance Offers Clues to Protect Crews From Mars Dust
NASA's Perseverance Mars rover has been collecting data on Martian dust particles for over 1,645 days. The rover has measured fine and ultrafine dust clinging to spacesuit materials carried aboard the vehicle. The data is being used to better understand how to protect astronauts from Martian dust.
Why it's good news: It will help ensure the safety of future Mars missions by providing valuable information on how to protect crews from harsh Martian conditions.
