It could be a historic day for the village of Jezero in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Locals are hoping the planned landing of a NASA rover on Mars on Thursday will bring them some earthly rewards.
The village hopes the mission will bring more attention and visitors to their own their small patch of the universe, a verdant Bosnian valley adjacent to the beautiful, river-fed Pivsko Lake, around 120 kilometres north-west of Sarajevo.
The rover is hoping to touch down at Jezero Crater on the Red Planet,
NASA told authorities in Jezero which means lake in the local language of their plans in September 2019.
