Our one-sol drive plans are coming along smoothly, and our team is making progress in driving a giant robot on another planet. Yesterday’s drive covered a little over 60 meters, and we are now gearing up for another drive in the upcoming sol 1385 plan. Before the drive, we have a brief science block scheduled that includes a ChemCam observation of the target “Epembe” and a Mastcam mosaic of “Baynes Mountain” to complete a gap in the 360 mosaic from the previous day.
Following these observations, we will embark on a drive spanning about 70 meters, capturing post-drive images along the way. Additionally, we will be utilizing AEGIS to conduct a ChemCam observation after the drive and utilizing MAHLI to examine the ground beneath the rover’s wheels. Ryan Anderson, a planetary scientist at the USGS Astrogeology Science Center and a member of the ChemCam team on MSL, provides these updates. Please note that the dates of planned rover activities mentioned in these reports are subject to change based on various factors related to the Martian environment, communication relays, and rover status.
