Add the beautiful APMEXclusive® Perseverance Mars Rover release to your collection today!Perseverance Mars RoverMars has fascinated scientists for centuries, and has long been thought capable of supporting life. The Perseverance Rover, part of NASA's Mars 2020 Mission, was sent to explore the Red Planet on July 30, 2020. Its goals, as stated by NASA, are to identify past environments capable of supporting microbial life, seek signs of possible past microbial life in those habitable environments, collect and store core samples, and test oxygen production in the atmosphere. In order to have the best chance of achieving these mission goals, NASA sought to land the rover in Jezero Crater, a crater thought most likely to show these signs as it included inflow and outflow channels as well as an evident delta deposit, all indications that it was at one time a massive lake. On February 18, 2021, confirmation that the rover had successfully landed at this location was received at 20:55 UTC. The design of the coin seeks to incorporate as many details of the landing as possible for a true symbolic piece to commemorate this feat. The obverse is an image of the rover landing on the surface with the assistance of the rocket-powered descendant stage. This stage was designed to counter the gravitational pull of the landing by creating upward force using jet propulsion. Surrounding the rover is a stylized image of the parachute, which also assisted in the landing. The parachute is unique in that it contained code which was later deciphered by internet users. The words Dare Mighty Things as well as the coordinates for the laboratory where the rover was designed are seen on the parachute and coin. The reverse features a clock set to the time confirmation of the landing was received. It also features symbols of the development of life on earth, which, like the parachute, were secretly included on the mission. These are included around the edge of the camera on the rover itself. This release marks the first exclusive developed in collaboration with The Pressburg Mint.
