Despite being heavy, NASA's rovers can land successfully on the surface of Mars.
Microprobes, which weigh as little as 50 milligrams, could explore areas of Mars that are inaccessible to NASA's heavy, wheeled rovers.
NASA currently uses its rovers on Mars, but microprobes have been proposed as an alternative.
Though they are different sizes, both microprobes and rovers can be used to explore the surface of Mars.
