Engineers and technicians at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, integrate the rover motor controller assembly (RMCA) into the Mars 2020 rover's body. The RMCA is the electrical heart of the rover's mobility and motion systems, commanding and regulating the movement of the motors in the rover's wheels, robotic arms, mast, drill and sample-handling functions. The image was taken on April 29, 2019, in the Spacecraft Assembly Facility's High Bay 1 clean room at JPL. https://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA23194
