The drill of the Rosalind Franklin ExoMars rover during integration and testing at Airbus Defence and Space, Stevenage, UK.
The range of motion shows the drill unit position when it is stowed (horizontal) and when it will be in use (vertical). It will contain a drill that can extend to 2 m below the martian surface, to retrieve samples from depth, and will deliver them to the rover’s onboard laboratory to seek out signs of ancient life.
The footage is not in real time.
