ALT The Heart and Soul nebulae are seen in this infrared mosaic from NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE). The nebula to the right is the Heart, designated IC 1805 and named after its shape resembling a human heart. To the left is the Soul nebula. Both nebulae appear as green bubbles of gas lined by wispy, white clouds. Inside each are splotches of fiery red gas. Vibrant blue stars litter the entirety of the scene.

ALT Members of NASA’s Perseverance Mars rover team watch in mission control as the first images arrive moments after the spacecraft successfully touched down on Mars, Thursday, Feb. 18, 2021, at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California. A key objective for Perseverance’s mission on Mars is astrobiology, including the search for signs of ancient microbial life. The rover will characterize the planet’s geology and past climate, pave the way for human exploration of the Red Planet, and be the first mission to collect and cache Martian rock and regolith.
