.Locating ourselves lower than a meter coming from our confident end-of-drive on Monday, our experts started on an extremely knowledgeable program: Starting along with an arm foundation for taking out dust and also making use of APXS to examine a base intended named "Russell Elapsed," putting the upper arm out of the way for imaging, spending simply over a hr on Mastcam image resolution and ChemCam LIBS on Russell Pass, after that one more upper arm basis for MAHLI pictures of Russell Pass, and eventually a travel in the mid-day. These plans, termed "touch-and-go" plans, are actually generally busy at the beginning and also slow down by the end. Our travel this time around is organized to go ~ 10 gauges virtually flawlessly east and also leaving our moving almost flawlessly west. If on Friday, our tires are actually solidly on the Martian ground and also there is actually a flat-enough base surface area to position our drill, our team might be remaining for an additional 2 weeks while we attempt and also gather yet another Gediz Vallis stations sample. As well as because our team drive back along with the arm occupying the rear end, our experts may even possess a work area our experts've already steered over - perhaps subjecting some inner bedrock even just before exploration.
