Rogozin said agencies needed to"maximise the robustness of all ExoMars systems," but also that European experts involved in the project had no ability to travel to"partner industries" because of the"exacerbation of the epidemiological situation in Europe." "We want to make ourselves 100% sure of a successful mission. We cannot allow ourselves any margin of error. More verification activities will ensure a safe trip and the best scientific results on Mars," Jan Wörner, the ESA director general said.
