"Just as it takes perseverance to land a rover on Mars, it takes perseverance to face the challenges and disruption to our lives from COVID-19, climate disasters, political instability and conflict," said Wendalyn Nichols, Cambridge Dictionary publishing manager. "We appreciated that connection, and we think Cambridge Dictionary users do, too."
