Experience Mars in real-time through NASA's live video feeds and up-to-the-minute mission data from the Red Planet.
Watch live footage from NASA's Mars missions, including rover operations and orbital views of the Red Planet.
This live feed provides real-time video from NASA's Mars missions. When rovers are actively transmitting, you'll see footage directly from the Martian surface. During quiet periods, the feed may show orbital views, mission control activities, or educational content about Mars exploration.
Due to the distance between Earth and Mars, there is a communication delay of approximately 5-20 minutes depending on the planets' relative positions.

The Perseverance rover has begun collecting rock samples in a new region of Jezero Crater. Scientists are particularly interested in this area due to mineral signatures that suggest ancient water activity.
NASA's Ingenuity Mars Helicopter has successfully completed its 52nd flight on the Red Planet, traveling 110 meters to scout the terrain ahead of the Perseverance rover.
Orbital instruments have detected a regional dust storm forming in Mars' northern hemisphere. Mission controllers are monitoring the situation and may adjust rover operations if the storm expands.
