 After several meetings of top scientists, it was decided that EXoMars 2020 will land in the Oxia Palus quadrangle at 18.14 N and 335.76 E.  This site is of interest because of a long-duration aqueous system including a delta, possible biosignatures, and a variety of  clays.<ref>https://www.hou.usra.edu/meetings/lpsc2018/eposter/2177.pdf</ref>   <ref>Quantin C. et al. (2014) ExoMars LSSW#1</ref> <ref>http://exploration.esa.int/mars/</ref>   The mission for a couple of reasons has been postponed until 2022.  The ExoMars programme will place a European rover and a Russian surface platform to the Martian surface.<ref>https://behindtheblack.com/behind-the-black/essays-and-commentaries/the-exomars-2020-landing-site/</ref>  A Russian Proton rocket will launch the craft. ExoMars rover will roam across Mars to search for signs of life. Using a drill, it will collect samples and look for organic chemicals that may be markers of past life. The drill can obtain samples from a depth of 2 meters where life forms would be protected from radiation.<ref>http://exploration.esa.int/mars/48088-mission-overview/</ref>
