What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

A long time ago, humans wanted to soar through the sky, so we did. Then we wanted to go to the moon, so we did. Then we looked out further, to a little red planet named Mars, but it was too far away. Instead, we sent a friend. We named her Opportunity, which means “a good chance” and feels like hope. With nine eyes, three ears, one arm, and six wheels, Oppy explored the mysterious terrain of Mars, gathering samples, snapping photos, and discovering vast craters. Everywhere held new and exciting surprises! Follow Opportunity’s groundbreaking Mars mission through her eyes, and the eyes of the scientists who loved her.
