Have humans ever visited Mars? Not yet, but we’ve sent lots of rovers, landers and orbiters to explore the Red Planet.

NASA has two operating rovers — Curiosity and Perseverance — which are currently traversing the Martian terrain in search of rocks that could teach us about Mars’ ancient past. And with NASA Artemis, we’re working on new tech that could one day get humans to Mars. NASA scientist Dr. Mitch Schulte has more. https://mars.nasa.gov/
