Was there ever life on Mars? 🔴

The samples @NASAPersevere is collecting as part of the #MarsSampleReturn campaign could hold the answer. See why one NASA scientist is especially excited about the samples taken from “Wildcat Ridge.”

If you’ve been following along, you know I’ve been busy in the last few weeks, setting down some very special items for possible return to Earth via #MarsSampleReturn.

How many lightsab…I mean sample tubes can you spot in my latest selfie?🔍

Perseverance's Three Forks Sample Depot Selfie – NASA Mars Exploration

NASA’s Perseverance took a selfie looking down at one of 10 tubes the rover deposited at the sample depot it created in an area within Jezero Crater nicknamed “Three Forks.” This image was taken by the WATSON camera on the rover’s robotic arm on Jan.

Another tube drop makes eight out of 10!

Reminder: this set I’m dropping is a backup. Plan A: I deliver the samples I’m still carrying (and others still to come) directly to #MarsSampleReturn. But if I can’t, this set alone would be worth sending back. mars.nasa.gov/msr

As of today, I’ve ridden the Red Planet around our Sun one whole time. Highlights from my first Mars year:

✅Explore vast crater floor
✅Collect 18 samples
✅Examine ancient river delta
✅Start laying down samples for #MarsSampleReturn

Many adventures still ahead, so...onward!
