Can you believe it? Three years ago today NASA's Curiosity Rover landed on Mars. 
Curiosity, the largest rover ever sent to another world, landed on Mars in the early morning hours of Aug. 6, 2012, and began exploring the Red Planet to determine its habitability. Since that time, Curiosity’s Mars Science Laboratory has made many exciting discoveries.
