Sols 4314-4315: Stand by, What Was That Back There?

.After completing the targeted as well as contact scientific research, our experts're ready to drive. As the scientific research team possessed time to appear a little bit much more at the records picked up because location, they found this aim at that cost getting back for. Our company are actually steering back to the location of the white rocks to carry out more get in touch with scientific research on stones that appear similar to the essential sulfur our company found previously this year. Planning in advance, I reached hunt this travel on Friday, laying out the most safe road and also looking for car parking locations that were both good for communications and also for performing contact scientific research. The intended "Lambs Creek" has to do with fifty meters (about 164 feets) to the northeast, which makes the travel a challenge-- the settlement of our imagery at that selection makes it more challenging to identify these small stones. Our team carry out possess definitely good imaging in that path, and also the surface isn't very scary, so the Wanderer Planners are heading to attempt to produce it in one drive.

Our team possess a Navcam suprahorizon movie (looking at the crater edge to assess dust in the atmosphere) and also a dust evil one motion picture. Our company likewise possess a ChemCam AEGIS monitoring, where the vagabond is going to autonomously decide on a target to picture. Overnight, CheMin does an "vacant tissue" evaluation to affirm that the body is cleaned out and prepared for the following testing initiative.
