The Curiosity Rover has been making headlines since it touched down on Mars on August 6. Well, it turns out that we’ve got a life-size model of the rover right here in the neighborhood. The Museum of Natural History’s Beyond Planet Earth exhibit features a model of the rover, as well as an exhibit on how humans may one day travel to Mars, “the most Earth-like planet in our solar system.”
Act fast. It closes August 12.
