Think we can kick off the new phase of exploration at Jezero.

So, when Perserverance DOES eventually drop off the sample tubes, is it going to drive away in a spiral to create a big bullseye for the recovery mission to find, either by satellite or helicopter? |

Shiny metal tubes would stand out against the rock and soil, I'd say. It's not like they will roll down a hill.... A dust storm in the intervening years could erase tracks entirely (has HiRise has a good look at Oppy/Spirit's tracks recently?) They may be degraded partially or entirely by now. |
