“We’ve put a stake in the ground. Future CubeSats might go even farther.”

Wall-E and Eve blasted off for their Mars mission in May 2018 alongside Nasa’s Insight lander, which touched down on the red planet in November.

Following Insight’s successful touchdown, Wall-E and Eve continued travelling beyond Mars to test their parameters.
