NASA names Mars sites for author Octavia Butler, engineer Jakob van Zyl

1:21 pm UTC Apr. 10, 2021 A Black science fiction author who believed she could write better stories than those in B-grade movies, and a former NASA senior director who gazed at the stars while growing up in a remote part of Africa have been honored with Mars Perseverance sites named after them. The names of Jakob van Zyl, a brilliant engineer and manager who helped send spacecraft across the solar system, are now part of the Perseverance rover’s mission. Their names now designate where the rover landed and where it will watch the Ingenuity helicopter fly. There s a tradition for Mars rover teams to name their landing sites after someone they want to commemorate, says Kathryn Stack Morgan, deputy project scientist of the Mars 2020 rover mission.
