A year on Gale Crater - Curiosity on Mars
Episode 23
The Mars Science Laboratory rover, Curiosity, touched down on the surface of Mars on August 5, 2012 in one of the most audacious planetary landings ever. Since then, the car-sized rover has been successfully exploring Gale crater, conducting an investigation of modern and ancient environments on the planet's surface.
Professor Sanjeev Gupta, a member of the project's science team, discusses the latest news from Gale crater, and what's next for Curiosity on Mars.
