How to Bring Mars sample Tubes Safely to (Earth Mars New Report)

NASA's Perseverance Mars rover is filling sample tubes with rocky material on
the Red Planet as the agency works on the next steps to get them safely back
to Earth.
The Mars Sample Return campaign would bring samples collected by the
Perseverance rover to Earth for detailed study. The campaign involves an
international interplanetary relay team, including the European Space Agency
(ESA). These samples could answer a key question: did life ever exist on
Mars?
Aaron Yazzie, who works on the Mars Sample Return campaign, explains the
work being done at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory to ensure the safe
return of the sample tubes.
