I suspect a full-scale lab is a little more capable than a pocket lab bolted on a rover

I think a real key will be getting geologists on the ground there. The productivity comparison is something crazy, like, an astronaut could do a few years of rover work in a week.

Wow, a bigger gap than I would have guessed.
