    Itll be interesting to see the results once the samples are brought back next decade. I hope we can make mars a “national park” so we don’t screw with it too much.

      Unfortunately, I think it’s much more likely that we will exploit it for any resources we can.

        😩 even just watching the rover dump samples on mars surface fills me with frustration. Where humanity goes, there shall be rubbish
