1.run tests on soil and rock samples
2. orbit Earth observing distant galaxies
3. carry astronauts and equipment into space
4. launch from Earth, carrying astronauts that perform research

Answer 1

Answer: 4. Launch from Earth, carrying astronauts that perform research.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rover is a vehicle which is used for the purpose of space exploration. It is required to be launch from the earth. It helps to move across the entire surface of the planet or any other celestial body. It is designed in such a way to transport the human spaceflight crew members so that they can observe the planet directly. These can land on the celestial body, they can collect the information and may also take the samples from the celestial body. The rovers can collect rocks, dust and can take photographs in space. Hence, they are useful in finding about the facts of the universe and will help in research.

Answer 2

The right option is; 4. launch from Earth, carrying astronauts that perform research

A rover is a space exploration vehicle that is created to explore the surface of a planet or other extraterrestrial bodies apart from planet earth. Different types of rovers are developed for different purpose. Some rovers are completely or partly autonomous robots, while some are used to transport astronauts (scientists), and to collect soil and rocks samples.
