Mars Mission: Due to being a year long on Mars, the seasons there are also long. The winter season of Mars also lasts long, which increases the challenges for the rover present there. Solar panels do not get enough sunlight to charge.

Mars New Year: Although the new year is still some time away for all of us on earth, our neighbor Mars has started celebrating its New Year. What actually happened is that Mars has completed another rotation of the Sun, which is much more Earthy than Earth. Earth completes one orbit of the Sun in 365 days, 6 hours and 9 minutes, but Mars takes 687 Earth days to complete this rotation. The last time Mars celebrated its new year was on 26 December 2022.

Actually, NASA has shared a post on its official social media platform Twitter. It reads, "Happy New Year on Mars! He also said that the year on Mars is longer, because it takes more time to revolve around the Sun. The Perseverance rover on Mars also participated in the festival.

Possible signs of life!

"This is my second solar orbit, and I'm looking forward to even more discoveries on this planet," NASA quoted him as saying. Perseverance landed on Mars in February 2021 and has since been searching for possible signs of life there. NASA also remembered the Curiosity rover in its video, which landed on Mars in 2012 and is still working hard.
