It does have some analyzing capability.
The problem with the analyzers, is it vaporizes the specimen it analyzes. The laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy vaporizes a small sample with about 50 to 75 5-nanosecond pulses from a 1067 nm infrared laser and then observing the spectrum of the light emitted by the vaporized rock. That might be great if you want to do an inventory of Mars’ minerals and chemical composition. It should have included screening for possible biological activity past and present.
I suspect that NASA’s motives for Mars exploration do not include the search for life. Instead, it looks like a quest for rare earth minerals in the mode of high tech prospecting. Shhhhhhh! We don’t want a gold rush going on the planet Mars.
