The crater rim stands out clearly in this colour map, making it easier to spot the shoreline of a lake that dried up billions of years ago. The oval indicates the landing ellipse, where the rover ...

NASA has also relied on CRISM maps to figure out where the most scientifically interesting landing sites are, as with Gale Crater, which Curiosity has been exploring since 2012, and Jezero Crater ...

Since landing in the Jezero Crater in February 2021, the Perseverance rover explored a variety of Martian rock types.

Jezero Crater on Mars was the landing site for NASA’s Mars 2020 rover. The colors in this image show surface minerals detected by CRISM, which helped identify the crater as a desirable landing site.

NASA's Perseverance rover has summitted the top of the Martian Jezero Crater following a monthslong climb. Up next is a new phase of exploration.

Researchers have created an interactive map of Mars’s Jezero Crater, letting you virtually wander around the planet’s surface and follow the rover’s path.
