Perseverance Mars mission thread

It is interesting they have never had a sample failure on Earth. They suspect it is the mechanical properties of the rock there not allowing the system to work as intended. The investigation is ongoing.

Perseverance has spotted the tiny Martian moon Deimos from the surface of Mars.

The Curiosity Mars rover had managed to collect 32 Martian rock samples by using a drill attached to robotic arm. Pereverance rovere mission still keeps searching for signs of past life on the red planet by analyzing the chemical, mineral, physical and organic characteristics of the rocks.

I am interested in how the next Mars rover mission will perfom. For example, the Rosalind Franklin rover mission. This ‘ mission will attempt to search for life on Mars and explore martiat surface. If you are interested in that mission you may find more here about the the Rosalind Franklin rover mission.
