You could write exactly what this is and what you’re supposed to do with it on a big stone plate outside…

Then in 10,000 years, find that an entire religion, culture, and wars were built around the simple maintenance instructions.

Outside, on Mars.

So we have to assume we will maintain the ability for human Mars travel in ten thousand years, that anyone can read English or whatever in ten thousand years, and that the supporting religion didn’t lose any of its wars.

To put this in perspective our first evidence of any human agriculture was 12,000 years ago.

Yeah, maybe, ever heard of the Georgia guidestones? They lasted ~ 30 years...
