The Rover

The wheels touch the ground. Dust settles around it as the horizon shows stone for miles. The planet is silent except for the crunching of the gravel underneath the Rover. We did it. The crowd erupts in cheers. Celebratory hugs are being given. A huge grin on everyone’s face can be seen through their masks. Congratulations Perseverance. Here’s to your spectacular discoveries and your courageous exploration. Here’s to the many you inspired and motivated. Here’s to the new advancement in technology; to the new era of space. Congratulations. You did it.
