Is there a plan for Percy to leave Jezero crater? I guess it's probably a lot of terrain for it to explore, but I'm looking at those walls and it doesn't seem like it'd be easy to get out.

I think the point where they wanted to land is suspected end of river delta, and they want to go uphill to delta itself, drilling samples along the way. I'm not sure it that is out of crater, but they at least want to climb something


It always amazes me when I see photos from Mars, Venus or Titan, that it looks like a pretty normal terrain

I appreciate the tremendous, inspiring work that has been put into this project but it's always going to be a little bit of a letdown that we did all this work to put the robot on another planet and it hasn't yet discovered a single mysterious obelisk or orb.


What we really need to do is secret mission to put the orb there, and then let someone else discover it stupid lazy aliens
