      Me too. and you can see the clear, planned out logical developments of the rovers. Pathfinder (just like the name( was a surface testing probe with a small rover) , groundbreaking at the time. Then the twin rover Spirit & Opportunity , both showing the ability to navigate Mars's surface and be able to care a mobile lab. And Mt goodness did they show the reliability and endurance of the engineering in the climate/conditions of Mars.
      Curiosity was the culmination of Pathfinder, Spirit & Opportunity experiences to produce a fully functional rover carrying a state-of-art laboratory on board and keep operating for over 8 years. Perseverance the next iterations then builds on 8 years of experience and unforeseen problems & solutions.
      It's testimony to genuinely long term planning and a clear goal.

    My name is on Perseverance, as well as on the InSight lander!
    My #1 reason to be excited about Perseverance is that once it has launched **and** landed in good health, I can finally stop having a nervous breakdown every couple of weeks thinking about it.
    I'm dead serious. The anxiety over these big missions is overwhelming ;_;
    I really look forward to the microphones and cameras. The Curiosity rover did actually have a microphone on-board, coupled with the lander camera, unfortunately it had a problem during pre-launch testing and it was decided to disable it, as it was not mission-critical, and it was definitely not worth missing a launch window over trying to trace down the issue. I was really bummed over that back in 2012, and even though there might not be a whole lot to listen to over there, I still want to hear it. Even if it's just white noise... It'll be martian white noise, mmkay.
