貢獻國際社會，美台太空合作又一成功案例！
大家還記得2019年成功發射的美台合作「福衛七號」氣象衛星嗎？最近很熱門的「來自火星的聲音」背後也有台灣的貢獻，美國「毅力號」探測車登陸火星，負責操控車子的正是來自台灣的工程師！當美國國家航空暨太空總署（NASA）「毅力號」去年從地球發射，經過7個月的旅程之後，終於在上周四登上火星。台灣工程師嚴正負責引導「毅力號」首次登陸的行進；而NASA噴射推進實驗室中，還有另一位台灣工程師劉登凱，從1997年以來為每一次的火星計畫設計太空船電子系統。當全世界為「毅力號」成功登陸歡欣鼓舞的同時，這項任務也代表美台合作立下了另一個里程碑，同時展現了台灣對全世界的貢獻！

One more successful story of U.S.-Taiwan space cooperation which benefits the global community!
Do you remember the exciting launch of the U.S.-Taiwan joint COSMIC 2/FORMOSAT-7 mission weather satellites in 2019? Did you know there are Taiwan engineers behind wheels of new NASA Mars rover?
When NASA’s Perseverance rover touched down on the surface of Mars last Thursday after a seven-month journey, a Taiwan-born engineer was preparing to guide its first movements on the Red Planet. And behind the scene in NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, another Taiwan engineer has designed electronic devices for space ships for Mars projects since 1997. While the world celebrates the successful landing of the Perseverance, this mission also marks another milestone in U.S.-Taiwan cooperation and exemplifies Taiwan’s contributions to the world.
