.Discovering ourselves lower than a meter from our confident end-of-drive on Monday, our company started on an incredibly knowledgeable program: Beginning along with an arm foundation for getting rid of dust and utilizing APXS to check out a base target called "Russell Successfully pass," placing the upper arm out of the way for imaging, investing only over an hour on Mastcam imaging and also ChemCam LIBS on Russell Pass, after that one more upper arm foundation for MAHLI images of Russell Pass, and also finally a ride in the afternoon. These plannings, referred to as "touch-and-go" programs, are actually usually busy at the beginning and also reduce at the end. Our travel this time is prepared to go ~ 10 meters virtually completely east and leaving our heading practically wonderfully west. If on Friday, our tires are steadily on the Martian ground and also there is actually a flat-enough bedrock surface area to place our practice, our company could be sitting tight for yet another two full weeks while we attempt as well as collect one more Gediz Vallis stations example. And because we steer in reverse along with the arm taking up the rear end, our experts may also possess a work area our company have actually already driven over - hopefully exposing some internal base even prior to drilling.
