.Finding our own selves less than a meter from our hopeful end-of-drive on Monday, we started on an extremely familiar program: Starting along with an upper arm basis for eliminating dirt and also utilizing APXS to check out a bedrock aim at named "Russell Elapsed," putting the arm off the beaten track for image resolution, investing merely over an hour on Mastcam image resolution and also ChemCam LIBS on Russell Pass, at that point another arm foundation for MAHLI pictures of Russell Pass, as well as lastly a ride in the afternoon. These plannings, dubbed "touch-and-go" programs, are usually busy at the beginning and slow down in the end. Our ride this moment is actually prepared to go ~ 10 meters almost flawlessly east and also leaving our heading nearly completely west. If on Friday, our tires are actually solidly on the Martian ground as well as there is actually a flat-enough bedrock surface area to position our drill, our company could be staying for one more pair of full weeks while we try as well as accumulate another Gediz Vallis stations sample. And also due to the fact that our experts drive back with the arm occupying the back, our company may even have an office our company've presently driven over - ideally subjecting some interior bedrock also just before exploration.
