Event
NASA's Mars 2020 Perseverance rover will land in the Jezero crater using a MSL-inspired sky-crane at approximately 20:55 UTC. It will investigate an astrobiologically relevant ancient environment on Mars and investigate its surface geological processes and history, including the assessment of its past habitability, the possibility of past life on Mars, and the potential for preservation of biosignatures within accessible geological materials. It will cache sample containers along its route for a potential future Mars sample-return mission. Perseverance is also ferrying several cutting-edge technologies to the surface of Mars – including a helicopter named Ingenuity, the first aircraft to attempt powered, controlled flight on another planet.
NASA Mars 2020 Perseverance Rover Landing is the event record for catalog id 89.

No related launch rows are currently resolved for this catalog record.
This record is built from the Launch Library 2 public catalog cache. The page keeps provider, pad, vehicle, astronaut, event, and location records separate from launch detail pages so source-backed facts stay easy to audit.
NASA Mars 2020 Perseverance Rover Landing is treated as a non-launch event record. Use it for event identity, event timing, type, external references, and any linked launch context rather than as a primary launch schedule page.
This page owns the catalog record. Collection pages own browsing, launch pages own mission timing and status, and the info hub explains the wider public-data surface.
