It's been a big year for everyone,The Intern - A Summer of Lust including the tenacious robot that's been traversing the rocky hills and valleys of Mars, the Perseverance rover.
Perseverance successfully landed on the Red Planet in mid-February. Its initial mission: surveillance. It was Perseverance's job to take pictures showing what Mars looks like up close and personal. Then, in May, it pivoted to scientist mode, and began conducting science experiments — a lot of hitting rocks with lasers! — to help us earthlings gain a better understanding of our close planetary neighbor.

Still, Perseverance continued to take photographs and send back its Martian dispatches to NASA. For the past 10 months, the public has been voting on a "picture of the week" from Perseverance's photo dumps. NASA compiled the most-liked images into a cache of 44 snapshots.
Below are our favorites, including images of the Martian surface and of course, some Perseverance selfies. Enjoy.
