NASA’s Perseverance rover has just done something no Mars robot has attempted before: follow a route that was planned not by ...

NASA's Perseverance Mars rover has completed the first drives on another world that were planned by artificial intelligence.

Using vision-based generative AI instead of human planners, Perseverance rover successfully mapped and drove its own routes ...

NASA quietly let a Mars rover think for itself in December 2025. Behind this shift stands Vandi Verma, whose work hints at how future missions may explore worlds alone.

The AI used the same data human planners employ to guide Perseverance through the Martian terrain. February marks the ...

Using high-resolution imagery from the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, the AI analyzed the bedrock and boulder fields. It processed the same data humans use, but it worked faster, stringing together ...
