NASA brilliantly succeeded in landing its Perseverance rover on Mars, only the fifth vehicle to have made the journey without a hitch, but the first to post the goal of finding, in the years to come, evidence of ancient life on the Red Planet.
"Landing confirmed!" Exclaimed at the scheduled time, 20:55 p.m. GMT, Swati Mohan, in charge of operations control at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, in Pasadena, California.

Temperature of the surface of Mars where the rover is: - 90 to 20 degrees, I hope it has good batteries. Mars is farther from the Sun than the planet Earth, the solar panels will have to be of high quality too!

A plutonium cell is better than solar panels and batteries! Yes it is a Pu battery that powers this rover (like Voyager 1 and 2 and other probes ...)

Otherwise beware of the first photos published by NASA are fakes ... here are the good ones:
