NASA Celebrates Curiosity’s Fourth Birthday With A Mars Rover Game
For its fourth birthday, the Curiosity rover on Mars is getting its very own game.
It’s been four Earth years since the Mars rover landed on the red planet on Aug. 6, 2012 and NASA partnered with the gamer network app GAMEE to develop the Mars Rover video game in celebration of the anniversary. The game lets players drive the rover around a simulation of Mars and earn points depending on how well the rover is navigated and balanced on the planet’s rough terrain.
