on the bright side, no animals are going to mistake it for food anytime soon.
really, we humans have dropped ( off handed guess ) about 10-20 cars worth of robots and probes. in the grand scheme of things doesn’t seem too bad in exchange for learning what’s out there
when - or if - we get to colonization or terra forming i think there might be more of a worry about losing something unique. right now, the reason it’s finding its own debris is precisely because its range and our impact are so small
i think it’ll be interesting to see how long they hold up with the wind storms. a hundred years, a thousand? still unclear if our ancestors will exist to have a chance to find out
