NASA set for launch on ULA Atlas V today as Perseverance Rover leaves for Mars 2020 mission

NASA is currently going to Mars today in one of the most interesting space launches in order to find the mystery of aliens in the Red Planet. Mission controllers have set their sights on the 28-mile-wide Jezero crater north of the planet’s equator. The rover is going to take 7 months to travel to the Red Planet and will reach there on February 18, 2021.
