NASA’s Mars Curiosity rover has traveled over 21.33 miles since it first landed on the Red Planet in 2012. That might not seem like very far, but it’s an impressive trek considering the vehicle only averages about 98 feet per hour and mission engineers must remotely steer it from over 140 million miles away.

In what's thought to be 'the first orbital image of the rover mid-drive,' Curiosity can be see making the journey to its next science destination on Mars.
