In honor of British Science Week, Queen Elizabeth II joined a virtual showcase, which included learning about NASA's Perseverance rover and seeing photos it had taken on Mars.
Upon seeing Mars, the queen remarked, "It’s unbelievable really to think one can actually see the surface!" An Instagram post shared by the royal family's official account revealed, "The Queen reacts to pictures of Mars taken by @NASA’s Perseverance rover during a video call with scientists, educators and schoolchildren to mark British Science Week." The post continued, "đ„ The event celebrates the role played in society by science, technology, engineering and maths, and aims to inspire a new generation of British scientists."
Per the caption, "Her Majesty was joined by space scientist Dr Maggie Aderin-Pocock, Professor Caroline Smith @natural_history_museum, the Learning Team @sciencemuseum and schoolchildren from Thomas Jones Primary for the virtual showcase."

Last weekend, the queen commemorated Commonwealth Day in a speech delivered from St. George’s Hall at Windsor Castle. She said, "Whilst experiences of the last year have been different across the Commonwealth, stirring examples of courage, commitment and selfless dedication have been demonstrated in every Commonwealth nation and territory, notably by those working on the frontline who have been delivering healthcare and other public services in their communities."
The queen continued, "We have also taken encouragement from remarkable advances in developing new vaccines and treatments ... The testing times experience by so many have led to a deeper appreciation of the mutual support and spiritual sustenance we enjoy being connected to others."
