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

.After wrapping up the targeted as well as call scientific research, our company're ready to steer. As the scientific research crew had time to look a bit a lot more at the records collected in that region, they found this intended that cost getting back for. We are actually driving back to the location of the white rocks to do even more connect with science on rocks that look comparable to the elemental sulfur our team observed earlier this year. Organizing ahead, I came to search this travel on Friday, laying out the most safe course and also searching for car parking areas that were actually both great for communications and also for carrying out call science. The target "Lamb Spring" is about 50 meters (concerning 164 feets) to the northeast, that makes the ride a difficulty-- the resolution of our images at that selection creates it more difficult to determine these small rocks. Our team perform possess truly excellent image resolution during that path, and also the landscapes isn't very terrifying, so the Wanderer Planners are going to make an effort to make it in one drive. In the course of the disk, our team will be actually taking a MARDI "sidewalk" movie (a collection of photos appearing listed below the vagabond for the whole span of the drive), which will definitely help record the channel. On the 2nd sol of the strategy, we do some additional atmospherical as well as untargeted science. Our company have a Navcam suprahorizon flick (considering the scar rim to analyze dirt in the atmosphere) as well as a dirt adversary movie. We additionally possess a ChemCam AEGIS monitoring, where the wanderer is going to autonomously decide on an aim at to photo. Overnight, CheMin does an "unfilled tissue" analysis to confirm that the unit is cleared out and ready for the upcoming tasting campaign.
