More than 30GB of information has already been collected from the rover - along with 23,000 images as the vehicle descended. Last Thursday's touchdown was the culmination of a seven-month journey through space and a"perilous" seven minutes where controllers looked on as the rover entered Mars' atmosphere at 12,100mph and hurtled towards the ground.
