NASA is sending a massive robot rover (a.k.a Curiosity) to next door neighbor space, Mars.
Curiosity's exciting task is to study and search for a biological history of Planet Mars.
"We are about to land a small compact car on the surface with a trunk-load of instruments. This is a pretty amazing feat getting ready to happen. It's exciting, it's daring - but it's fantastic," - Doug McCuistion, the head of Nasa's Mars.
"The $2.5bn mission is due to touch down at 05:31 GMT (06:31 BST) Monday 6 August; 22:31 PDT, Sunday 5 August," - BBC.
