Here's what it sounds like to go off-roading on Mars


The Perseverance Mars rover is the most out of this world SUV. Crawling being a very literal term in this case, as the six-wheel vehicle has a maximum speed of .01 mph.

"If I heard these sounds driving my car, I’d pull over and call for a tow," Dave Gruel, lead engineer for Mars 2020’s EDL Camera and Microphone subsystem said.
