Frequently asked questions
Is Curiosity still active on Mars?
Yes! Curiosity has been active since August 6, 2012 and continues to send new photos and science data. Opportunity operated for 15 years (2004-2018), Spirit for 6 years (2004-2010).
Can I search photos by Earth date instead of Martian sol?
Yes, the server supports querying by both Earth date (e.g., '2023-11-20') and Martian Sol (the number of Martian days since the rover landed) for flexibility.
Which cameras are available on the rovers?
Available cameras include FHAZ (Front Hazard), RHAZ (Rear Hazard), NAVCAM (Navigation), MAST (Mast Camera), CHEMCAM (Chemistry and Camera), and MAHLI (Mars Hand Lens Imager).
How does LlamaIndex connect to MCP servers?
Use the MCP client adapter to create a connection. LlamaIndex discovers all tools and wraps them as query engine tools compatible with any LlamaIndex agent.
Can I combine MCP tools with vector stores?
Yes. LlamaIndex agents can query NASA Mars — Rover Photos from the Red Planet tools and vector store indexes in the same turn, combining real-time and embedded data for grounded responses.
Does LlamaIndex support async MCP calls?
Yes. LlamaIndex's async agent framework supports concurrent MCP tool calls for high-throughput data processing pipelines.
