.Our team are actually back ... practically, anyways. Today's vehicle parking location is actually quite close to where our company stationed on sol 4253, as well as in an area near one of the previous contact science targets "Exploration Epitome." You can check out in this blog that most of the team, this writer consisted of, remained in Pasadena for our staff conference when we were actually final around. That was July and Inquisitiveness will switch 12 on Mars. Coming back is actually an incredibly rare celebration and also is actually consistently prepared carefully. Once or twice during the course of the final 12 years it took place due to the fact that our company observed something "in the rear mirror." One of the instances is actually the intended "Old Soaker," where our company identified dirt splits in the photos coming from a previous car park placement, as well as quickly returned because this was actually such an important discovery. At other times it was properly considered, like the "walkabout" at "Pink Cliffs," which you may see in this particular video clip coming from as long back as The planet year 2015. Previously few organizing patterns, it is actually even more of the second as our experts created our method coming from Discovery Epitome, where our company were on sol 4253, "Only going through" "Russell Pass" and also getting to "Kings Canyon," our exercise place, which our team achieved on sol 4257. You can easily comply with all the action of the exploration at Kings Canyon on the blogging sites. It took an even though-- it constantly performs-- considering that it is actually an activity along with a lot of steps and also investigations to complete. Our team in fact commemorated Curiosity's 12th special day at Kings Gulch! Our experts departed on sol 4283, went back by means of "Cathedral Top," as well as are actually now near the Discovery Pinnacle site once again. After that little walkabout by means of the record of (some) of Curiosity's hikes, specifically the extremely last one, let's take a look at today's planning.
