Yeah, it’s going to the probe farm on one of Jupiter’s moons. It’ll love it there, it’ll be much happier playing around with other probes

I'm picturing this entire plan of bringing the world's greatest minds, spending a decade designing gear and training an entire crew to personally fly all the way to mars, then once they get there one of them briefly hops out, repositions the bot, goes back to the shuttle and they all fly back to earth patting themselves on the back
