It took me a few days to get back to this article/video.

Maybe I missed it, but the documentary didn't mention the Wyoming's life-sized, white skeleton (hull) sculpture that is located on the museum property, on the very spot where the ship was built.

As "the longest confirmed wooden ship in history", the Wyoming is analogous to Noah's Ark.

And while Noah's Ark was a box [Hebrew תיבה], not a schooner, Wyoming is the shape of a box.

What's in a name..

The last picture on this page is a nice view of the sculpture. From the coordinates on that link, it's a short hop over to a satellite map view.

Notice the streets at the corner location of the bowsprit of "the longest confirmed wooden ship in history".

Percy & Small *is* the Mars 2020 mission.

Apparently a box can be any shape.
