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

.After wrapping up the targeted and also connect with scientific research, our company're ready to steer. As the scientific research group possessed time to appear a little bit even more at the records collected because area, they uncovered this aim at that was worth returning for. Our experts are steering back to the place of the white colored stones to do additional connect with science on rocks that appear comparable to the elemental sulfur our team viewed previously this year. Preparing ahead, I came to look this drive on Friday, outlining the ideal pathway and trying to find vehicle parking areas that were actually each great for interactions along with for carrying out get in touch with scientific research. The intended "Sheep Creek" has to do with 50 meters (concerning 164 feet) to the northeast, which makes the drive a difficulty-- the settlement of our visuals at that array makes it harder to pinpoint these small rocks. Our team carry out possess really great imaging in that path, and the surface isn't extremely terrifying, so the Rover Planners are actually visiting make an effort to produce it in one ride. During the drive, our experts will definitely be actually taking a MARDI "sidewalk" flick (a set of graphics looking below the vagabond for the whole entire span of the disk), which will certainly aid record the channel. On the 2nd sol of the program, we perform some additional atmospheric and untargeted science. Our team have a Navcam suprahorizon motion picture (looking at the sinkhole edge to assess dirt in the ambience) and a dust evil one movie. We also have a ChemCam AEGIS review, where the rover will autonomously choose an intended to picture. Overnight, CheMin does an "vacant tissue" evaluation to affirm that the unit is actually cleared out and also ready for the next tasting campaign.
