Seeing 2020: A View of NASA's Next Mars Mission

NASA’s mission to Mars is scheduled to launch next July and land inside the planet’s Jezero Crater in February 2021. For Mars 2020 enthusiasts, that future is now: a 24/7 livestream from the Spacecraft Assembly Facility clean room at JPL allows the public to watch engineers assemble and test NASA’s next Mars rover. The feed can be viewed at mars.nasa.gov/mars2020/mission/where-is-the-rover.

The feed includes live web chats with members of JPL's social media team and the Mars 2020 team. These chats occur twice a day every Monday through Thursday, at 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. PDT.

The feed is also available on YouTube at youtube.com/NASAJPL/live.
