NASA's Mars Exploration Program (source images: NASA/JPL-Caltech)

With its rover named Curiosity, Mars Science Laboratory mission is part of NASA's Mars Exploration Program, a long-term effort of robotic exploration of the red planet. Curiosity was designed to assess whether Mars ever had an environment able to support small life forms called microbes. In other words, its mission is to determine the planet's "habitability."

no , if the rover was on the same spot for a period of time considerable enough to wash away tread marks with constantly blowing dust.

These tires should leave a track in the underground. But I can't see one. Weird, isn't it?

É bom urgenciar essa "habitabilidade" de Marte, pois, como diz o Chico Buarque, "aqui na terra tão jogando futebol... mas o que eu quero é te dizer que a coisa aqui tá preta."
