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

.After concluding the targeted as well as connect with science, our experts're ready to drive. As the scientific research group had time to appear a bit even more at the records accumulated during that location, they discovered this aim at that was worth getting back for. Our team are actually steering back to the area of the white colored stones to carry out even more contact science on rocks that look similar to the important sulfur our company found previously this year. Preparing ahead, I came to search this ride on Friday, setting out the ideal pathway as well as seeking vehicle parking places that were both good for interactions in addition to for doing call science. The target "Sheep Spring" has to do with 50 meters (regarding 164 feets) to the northeast, that makes the ride an obstacle-- the resolution of our photos at that variation makes it harder to pinpoint these small rocks. Our team do possess truly good image resolution because instructions, and the terrain isn't super terrifying, so the Vagabond Planners are actually going to attempt to make it in one drive. During the course of the disk, we will certainly be actually taking a MARDI "pavement" motion picture (a set of graphics appearing listed below the vagabond for the whole entire span of the disk), which will certainly aid chronicle the stations. On the 2nd sol of the plan, our team perform some extra atmospheric as well as untargeted science. Our company possess a Navcam suprahorizon movie (taking a look at the scar edge to examine dirt in the environment) and also a dirt devil motion picture. Our team also possess a ChemCam AEGIS monitoring, where the vagabond will autonomously decide on an aim at to picture. Overnight, CheMin carries out an "unfilled cell" analysis to verify that the device is cleaned as well as ready for the upcoming tasting campaign.
