One of the goals of the mission is to harvest rocks to be available for a future mission to return to earth with them. Chemical content is valuable to research the possibility of a different atmosphere over time.
There is an interest in finding lava tubes on Mars. The ones on earth are made when lava flows harden on the outside leaving a tube like place. The tubes may contain ice protected from the sun and lack of atmosphere.
Good luck to all three nations…

Did you know that there was a geo magnetic storm in December 2020? BC hydro has plans for such events, including preparation…
The world wasn’t quite ready for the geomagnetic storm that arrived just over three decades ago. When the northern lights were spotted as far south as Texas and Florida on March 13, 1989, some wondered if – with memories of the Cold War still strong – that a nuclear first strike had been launched. Others thought maybe it had something to do with a U.S. space shuttle mission.
Neither was true, but the geomagnetic storm had a dramatic effect in Quebec, which lost power for nine hours after the variations in the Earth’s magnetic field tripped circuit breakers in Hydro-Québec’s power grid. Another storm on August 16, 1989, halted all trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange.
Electrical utilities now have programs in place to reduce the risks associated with geomagnetic storms, including the one that struck Earth on December 11, 2020.
“We were expecting a medium to strong storm, but the [National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration] downgraded the storm,” says BC Hydro spokesperson Mora Scott. “Even so, we prepare for all geomagnetic storms. They can cause serious damage to high voltage transmission systems, leading to outages.”
There is an 11 year cycle to the sun spot activity caused by magnetic storms on the sun ( sun spots). The storms send particles by the earth showing up as Northern Lights. The good news is that these particles reflex sunlight back to space cooling the earth. So long as the storms are not to strong they help to give us a better environment and a pleasant visage of lights on the dark horizons. After about 11years the cycle ends with a period of calm on the sun.
If you have concerns about EM pulse from these things it might be good to have some good old cash in your emergency supplies ,as the electronic can go out in an event.
Can electromagnetic pulse hurt humans? An EMP or Electro Magnetic Pulse is a wave of electromagnetic radiation. An EMP does not directly hurt people, but an EMP interacts with power lines, metal, conductive materials and electronics and causes power spikes.

Because of states of emergency may limit availability. Households in rural areas should well enjoy depending on cloud cover. Others may be creative so as not to do any thing unsafe.
While a telescope is required now this event should grow larger until late April.
