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

.After completing the targeted as well as contact science, our experts're ready to steer. As the scientific research staff possessed time to appear a little more at the information accumulated in that area, they uncovered this target that cost returning for. Our company are actually driving back to the region of the white colored stones to perform more get in touch with science on rocks that look identical to the essential sulfur our team saw earlier this year. Preparation in advance, I got to look this drive on Friday, setting out the most safe pathway and also seeking parking areas that were each good for interactions as well as for performing get in touch with science. The aim at "Sheep Creek" concerns 50 meters (concerning 164 feets) to the northeast, which makes the travel an obstacle-- the settlement of our visuals at that selection creates it more difficult to determine these little rocks. Our company do possess really good imaging because path, and the landscapes isn't super frightening, so the Wanderer Planners are actually visiting attempt to produce it in one drive. During the course of the drive, our experts will certainly be actually taking a MARDI "walkway" film (a set of graphics looking below the rover for the whole size of the disk), which will definitely help chronicle the network. On the 2nd sol of the planning, our experts do some additional atmospheric as well as untargeted scientific research. Our team possess a Navcam suprahorizon flick (looking at the crater rim to analyze dust in the setting) as well as a dust evil one flick. Our team also have a ChemCam AEGIS observation, where the vagabond is going to autonomously select an aim at to picture. Overnight, CheMin carries out an "vacant tissue" review to validate that the system is actually cleaned and all set for the next tasting initiative.
