  NASA's Perseverance rover has summited the rim of Mars' Jezero Crater, a climb of 1,640 vertical feet that took about 3.5 months.

The article from MSN discusses NASA's Mars rover, Perseverance, reaching the rim of Jezero Crater, its primary exploration site. Launched in July 2020, Perseverance has been on Mars since February 2021, with the mission to search for signs of ancient microbial life, study the planet's geology and climate, and collect samples for future return to Earth. The rover has now completed its journey to the crater's edge, where it will begin detailed exploration of the delta region, believed to be a lakebed billions of years ago. This area is of particular interest because it could contain evidence of past life. The rover's progress was marked by a video showing its path up and over the crater's rim, highlighting the challenging Martian terrain it has navigated.
