.Locating ourselves lower than a gauge from our enthusiastic end-of-drive on Monday, we began on a very familiar strategy: Beginning with an upper arm basis for taking out dust and also making use of APXS to check out a base aim at called "Russell Elapsed," placing the upper arm out of the way for image resolution, devoting simply over an hour on Mastcam imaging and also ChemCam LIBS on Russell Pass, after that another upper arm basis for MAHLI photos of Russell Pass, and ultimately a drive in the afternoon. These strategies, termed "touch-and-go" plans, are actually commonly busy at the beginning and also slow at the end. Our ride this time is planned to go ~ 10 meters virtually completely east as well as leaving our moving just about completely west. If on Friday, our tires are actually well on the Martian ground as well as there is actually a flat-enough base area to position our exercise, our company might be staying for an additional pair of full weeks while we attempt as well as accumulate an additional Gediz Vallis stations example. As well as considering that our company drive back along with the arm using up the rear end, our company could also possess a workspace our experts've currently steered over - perhaps leaving open some interior bedrock also prior to drilling.
