About this work
Alex Mather, the student whose submission, Perseverance, was chosen as the official name of the Mars 2020 rover, is seen in the audience seated with his family, Thursday, March 5, 2020, at Lake Braddock Secondary School in Burke, Va. The final selection of the new name was made by Associate Administrator of NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Thomas Zurbuchen, following a nationwide naming contest conducted in 2019 that drew more than 28,000 essays by K-12 students from every U.S.
