Perseverance is something larger

If persistence is attempting to solve some difficult problem with dogged determination and hammering until the break occurs, then plenty of people can be said to be persistent. But perseverance is something larger. It’s the long game. It’s about what happens not just in round one but in round two and every round after—and then the fight after that and the fight after that, until the end.

Good rover #Perseverance does what its humans tell it to do. Here's to those humans who created it and to those operating it for science, in the era of #spaceEconomy for billionaires.
