I wonder if it might make sense to have a kind of satellite around Mars with a series of probes that can be deployed wherever interesting things are suggested to be but aren’t necessarily expected to be mobile, beyond perhaps drilling downwards.
That way as more interesting discoveries are made via rovers or other technologies, we can deploy a probe right away instead of having to plan and build and hurl a rover through space for a year and a half.
