Manifest Data Collection: Create detailed mappings of payload IDs to lander IDs and mission IDs, capturing all items delivered to the surface.
Timeline Data Tracking: Maintain an accurate log of launch dates, target landing sites, and actual landing coordinates.
Outcome Documentation: Collect and document mission success metrics and status transitions.
Source Attribution: Link entries to official mission reports, NASA CLPS updates, or provider press releases to verify status change and manifest items.
Cross-Referential Integrity: Always verify if lander_id or payload_ids have corresponding files in landers/ or rovers/. If so, ensure the Markdown body contains relative links (e.g., [Lander Name](../landers/FILE.MD)) to those files.
