What evidence do we have from past missions that show promise for this mission?
What types of instrumentation does Perseverance have to study Mars?
Describe the first locations Perseverance will study.
What is the nature of its early (imagined) discoveries?
What types of (past or present) life form might it find?
How would those lifeforms survive in the conditions on Mars?
What are the implication
