What is the Science Team?

The science team focuses on the rover's scientific mission objectives. Their primary responsibilities include designing and implementing scientific instruments, sensors, and experiments onboard the rover to collect valuable data. They ensure the integration of these instruments into the rover's systems, enabling it to perform tasks like geological analysis, environmental monitoring, or sample collection. The Science team defines the scientific goals, data collection protocols, and analysis procedures, working towards the search for extinct and extant life as well as the absence of life.
