ESA exhibits at the "Moving to Mars" exhibition hosted by the Design Museum in London, including a model ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter and a full-scale model ExoMars Rosalind Franklin rover., alongside prototype rovers from ESA's robotics laboratory.
The actual Rosalind Franklin rover is due to travel to Mars in 2020 and land on the martian surface in 2021. The vehicle will drill down two metres beneath the surface to sample the soil, analyse its composition and search for evidence of past - and perhaps even present - life buried underground.
It forms part of the international ExoMars programme led by ESA and the Russian Space Agency, Roscosmos.
