This is a cool thing. I hope you get to see and do some cool stuff (outside and within the realms of what geology allows)

Thank you I hope so to! Perseverance is currently exploring a delta, where an ancient river once emptied into an ancient lake, and looking for signs of life. It's taking rock samples that will be returned to Earth which will allow the first definitive analysis for evidence of life on Mars.
