On Thursday, July 30, the 2020 Mars Rover 'Perseverance' has officially launched to space. Though there has been an earthquake problem before the launch, the mission was still successfully held. But, have you ever figured who the man behind all these missions is? Meet the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) CEO and Administrator Jim Bridenstine.
Who's the man behind all these?
In the recent launching, Bridenstine led the press conference to announce that the 2020 Mars Rover is not the only machine heading to Mars. He will be having a friend called Ingenuity, a small aircraft like a helicopter.
"For the first time ever, we're going to fly a helicopter on Mars," Bridenstine told reporters ahead of the launch.
