With a final tube drop, I’ve completed the diverse backup set of samples I’m setting down. Future #MarsSampleReturn robots could come for these, or if all goes well, I’ll have lots more fascinating stuff in hand when they get here – NASA’s Perseverance Mars Rover

The Rover shared the photographs- which was clicked by Mastcam-Z camera fitted on the top of its mast.
