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

.After concluding the targeted as well as connect with science, we prepare to drive. As the science group possessed time to appear a bit a lot more at the records accumulated during that area, they found this aim at that was worth going back for. We are actually steering back to the location of the white colored rocks to perform additional call science on stones that look identical to the important sulfur our experts saw previously this year. Organizing in advance, I got to hunt this travel on Friday, mapping out the best road as well as searching for auto parking areas that were actually each helpful for interactions as well as for doing connect with scientific research. The aim at "Lamb Creek" concerns 50 gauges (regarding 164 feets) to the northeast, that makes the drive an obstacle-- the settlement of our images at that variation makes it more challenging to figure out these small rocks. Our experts carry out have definitely excellent imaging in that path, and the landscapes isn't tremendously terrifying, so the Rover Planners are mosting likely to make an effort to make it in one drive. Throughout the disk, our experts will be taking a MARDI "pathway" movie (a collection of photos appearing listed below the vagabond for the whole entire duration of the disk), which are going to help record the stations. On the second sol of the plan, we do some added atmospheric as well as untargeted science. Our experts have a Navcam suprahorizon movie (examining the hole edge to assess dust in the setting) and a dust devil motion picture. Our experts also have a ChemCam AEGIS observation, where the vagabond will autonomously decide on an intended to picture. Overnight, CheMin does an "unfilled tissue" review to validate that the device is actually cleared out and also prepared for the following sampling campaign.
