好奇号火星车着陆7年后，仍然在持续探索

Seven years. 13 miles. 22 samples.

Our Curiosity rover has come a long way since touching down on Mars seven years ago. It has traveled a total of 13 miles (21 kilometers) and ascended 1,207 feet (368 meters) to its current location. Along the way, Curiosity discovered Mars had the conditions to support microbial life in the ancient past. And the rover is far from done, having just drilled its 22nd sample from the Martian surface.

七年。13英里。22个样本。

自从七年前登陆火星以来，我们的好奇号漫游者已经走了很长一段路。它总共飞行了13英里(21公里)，并上升了1207英尺(368米)到目前的位置。在探索的过程中，“好奇号”发现火星在远古时代就具备了支持微生物生存的条件。火星车还远没有完成，它刚刚从火星表面钻出了第22个样本。

2019年6月18日，“好奇号”在火星上拍摄了一个名为“蒂尔山脊”的360度全景图。
