If the world is relatively small and the robot has code A60F2400L (explore for 40 minutes) then it can happen that robot returns sooner to the base station. The current code would continue and explore the world for the 2nd time.

It would be wiser to detect such case, report found artifacts and stop - it does not have sense to explore the world with the same strategy.

It should be possible to recognize this by distance from DARPA origin (0, 0, 0) - gate entrance, and verified via get_origin.
