Caption:
A field team sets up equipment in the Nevada desert in February 2020 as part of a training session for scientists who will work with NASA's Perseverance Mars rover after it lands. Cameras and instruments carried by the field team stood in for an actual rover; the scientists, based in offices around the world, sent commands for images and data, as they will with Perseverance.
