500 GRAMS OF ROCKS AND SOIL WILL BRING TO THE WORLD
It is planned that Perseverance will bring 500 grams of rock and soil samples to Earth, which he will collect during 1 Mars year (about 1 Earth year). Perseverance is also expected to conduct an experiment on producing oxygen for future astronauts in the carbon dioxide-rich Martian atmosphere during his tenure.
