Sols 4314-4315: Hang around, What Was Actually That Back There?

.After completing the targeted and also get in touch with scientific research, our company're ready to steer. As the science crew had time to look a bit a lot more at the information collected during that area, they discovered this target that cost going back for. Our team are driving back to the location of the white rocks to accomplish additional call science on rocks that look identical to the essential sulfur our company observed previously this year. Preparation in advance, I came to look this ride on Friday, setting out the best road and also searching for parking locations that were actually both helpful for interactions in addition to for doing call scientific research. The target "Lambs Creek" has to do with fifty meters (regarding 164 feets) to the northeast, that makes the drive an obstacle-- the resolution of our visuals at that assortment produces it more challenging to figure out these small stones. Our experts carry out possess really good imaging during that path, and also the landscapes isn't very frightening, so the Rover Planners are actually mosting likely to try to make it in one travel. Throughout the disk, our company will definitely be taking a MARDI "walkway" film (a collection of graphics appearing listed below the vagabond for the whole entire span of the disk), which will aid chronicle the channel. On the 2nd sol of the planning, we carry out some additional climatic as well as untargeted science. Our experts have a Navcam suprahorizon movie (looking at the sinkhole rim to review dust in the setting) as well as a dirt adversary flick. Our team likewise have a ChemCam AEGIS monitoring, where the wanderer will autonomously decide on a target to image. Overnight, CheMin carries out an "vacant cell" review to verify that the unit is actually cleaned as well as ready for the following testing project.
