Paphos Life

Getting excited as Perseverance Rover is due to land on Mars on 18 February.

I booked my Boarding Pass for this flight in May 2019 and the NASA's Mars 2020 Mission Perseverance Rover was launched from Cape Canaveral on 30 July 2020.

In under a month, NASA’s Perseverance groundbreaking rover will land on Mars in search for evidence of ancient extraterrestrial life and carry the names of Cypriots among 11 million people.

The mission, named MARS2020, will also test the first helicopter on another planet, and collect important data about Mars’ geology and climate.

It carries the names of almost 11 million people from many countries, including Cyprus, as part of NASA`s “Send Your Name to Mars” campaign.

Not just Cypriots - my name is also on there!
