Mars coming back…
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.
Lava tubes…

The pandemic started in 2019 with reports coming out of China about an outbreak in a large manufacturing city. The city had wet wildlife markets as well as a pollution base that made it popular to wear face masks. There is no substance to rumors of the virus being made in a lab.
The virus acts like a cold however the infection goes for the lower respiratory system and can result in long painful treatment including ventilators and induced comas.
The death rate varies from place to place but it has a pension to overwhelm hospital and civic resources.
There is a wide expectation of vaccines to deal with this this new virus by 2021. Safety, effectiveness, distribution, and antibody resilience are issues.
Prevention can be as simple as that for common cold and many people do not have severe cases.
Good luck and carry on…

The red planet is visible to the naked eye at night now, it will be closest to the earth since 2003 tonight, July 31st 2018.
On July 30-31, 2018, Mars and Earth are closer than since their historically close approach in 2003. Mars was closer in 2003 than in some 60,000 years, and it’s now only slightly farther from Earth now than then. It’s about 35.78 million miles (57.59 million km) away at its closest on July 31 at 08:00 UTC. That time places Mars’ closest approach before sunrise on July 31 for North American time zones – Earth sky news
Look to the right and down a little from the waning moon tonight. The red dot is visible, that is Mars from Merritt BC. Ca.

We hope this information does something for your sol because:
The rover is investigating a channel called Perseverance Valley, which descends the inboard slope of the western rim of Endeavour Crater. Ray Arvidson of Washington University in St. Louis is Opportunity Deputy Principal Investigator. source: Earth Sky News.
