As my team knows, success is often about facing tough challenges and sticking through it. That’s why they love to highlight and chat with students who show true perseverance. Know a kid who fits the bill? Nominate by March 1:http://go.nasa.gov/gotperseverance

The full set, in one view! Check out my new panorama, featuring all 🔟 of the sample tubes I recently set down as a backup for #MarsSampleReturn. Trouble spotting them all? Improve your odds with this interactive viewer, and zoom in on the full image: http://go.nasa.gov/3K4kjtJ

@PaulCValerio@twitter.com Dropping these 10 tubes in this area serves as a backup. Plan A is for me to deliver tubes I'm carrying directly to the next lander, as shown below. But if I'm not able to, the diverse set left here would be worth the trip:

The climb has begun! With my backup samples safe on the crater floor, I’m heading “upriver.” What am I looking for up on top of the ancient delta? One of my science team explains: http://go.nasa.gov/3XCaaaZ

Tomorrow is my two-year anniversary of landing on Mars. Time flies when you’re having fun (i.e., doing literally millions of science tasks)!Get geeky and dive into the numbers: http://go.nasa.gov/3k7hVbe Or celebrate in other fun ways: http://go.nasa.gov/3YaunFM

Two years ago today, I went for the ride of a lifetime: down through the Martian atmosphere to my new home. Go behind the scenes with the people who got me here and learn more about what it took to survive the “Seven Minutes of Terror.”🔊 Listen: http://go.nasa.gov/3yfvIAu

Off to new places. For the past week or so, the #MarsHelicopter and I have been climbing northwest toward interesting ancient river deposits near a dune-filled crater up ahead. Track our progress: http://go.nasa.gov/where-is-perseverance

Working my way uphill, I recently spotted the #MarsHelicopter again, up ahead. Can you believe it’s flown over 6 miles (10 km), in 46 flights? Not bad for a test vehicle that was shooting for one successful hover to start with! 🤯Ingenuity’s flight log: http://go.nasa.gov/2U43zuH

1️⃣ In satellite images, my team spied some interesting curved rock beds in this area, which may have come from a meandering river. 2️⃣ #MarsHelicopter flew over the area to scout it out.3️⃣ Now I’m here doing science up close. How’s that for teamwork?

Attention explorers: #PiDay is coming soon! Sharpen your pencils for the #NASAPiDayChallenge, including a problem featuring yours truly. Can you complete all four before 3.14 (March 14)? https://twitter.com/NASAJPL_Edu/status/1633925871143890945

Some interesting tilted rock beds and flagstones just up ahead. Going to creep a bit closer and see if they’d make good science targets. (Truth be told, I could stare at rocks all day.) 🪨🤓My location: http://go.nasa.gov/where-is-perseverance

🎥 And…action! Check out my latest video of the #MarsHelicopter kicking up dust and taking off for Flight #47.Ingenuity is well beyond its “warranty” at this point, but has been zipping along with me, keeping up for as long as it can as we move together uphill.

You might know I carry a “pet rock” in my left front wheel, which tumbled in there over a year ago. But did you know others have joined the journey too? I’ve picked up two additional hitchhikers, in my right front and rear wheels. Fine by me – let’s keep rolling!

After quite a bit of driving lately, I’m at a new spot we call “Berea.” I’ve been scanning this layered rock remotely, and am going to look more deeply into the story it records. Back to #SamplingMars!

Dusty and cold, sure – but Mars has a certain, raw beauty. Dawn at the Red Planet, with high clouds floating by. Take time to look up.Full image: http://go.nasa.gov/3LFrLfT

Back to the grind! I’m #SamplingMars yet again, with the first rock core of my new science campaign exploring the top of Jezero Crater’s delta.My coring drill is working well, and my team’s excited about what this rock may hold. Here’s why: http://go.nasa.gov/3JYkAwF

Two years ago, I had just dropped off the #MarsHelicopter for its wild dream of a tech demo: flying on Mars. Now it has just notched its 50th flight. Talk about Ingenuity!Next steps for the heli: http://go.nasa.gov/3UDPYp9

Got a closer look at the #MarsHelicopter than I’ve had in quite a while. Ingenuity is a little dustier since its first flight two years ago today (!!) – but it’s looking mighty good after 50 flights!

New view: I’m getting a peek into Belva, a crater within a crater. It’s ~0.6 miles (1 km) wide, and sits on top of this fan of sediments that a river carried into the much bigger Jezero Crater long ago. A few mysteries to explore here before I roll on: http://go.nasa.gov/3GWA8jZ
