The Mars 2020 rover will carry a new subsystem to collect and prepare Martian rocks and regolith (loose, unconsolidated) samples. This includes a rotary percussive coring drill and a set of sample tubes. About 30 of these sample tubes will be deposited at select locations for return on a potential future sample-retrieval mission. In laboratories on Earth, specimens from Mars could be analyzed for evidence of past life on Mars and possible health hazards for future human missions. Hardware and control algorithms for the coring drill are based heavily on testing. Results from testing of prototype hardware are used to refine the design
