Mars Guy takes a look at recent coring operations by NASA’s Perseverance Rover busily working within Jezero Crater.
The robot extracted a sample that was momentarily stuck in limbo. After some cajoling, the piece was freed from the teeth of the coring bit, only to arrive in another state of limbo.

Also discussed is the Perseverance cache of 21 samples stored in the belly of the Mars machinery – also in a state of limbo.
Highlighted is a Rocket Lab proposal to bring back the stash of collectibles. Spotlighted as well is the SpaceX/Elon Musk plan for future Mars exploration.
