Sols 4255-4256: Merely Passing Through

.Finding our own selves lower than a gauge coming from our hopeful end-of-drive on Monday, our experts started on an extremely familiar planning: Starting along with an upper arm foundation for taking out dirt as well as making use of APXS to look into a bedrock target named "Russell Successfully pass," positioning the upper arm off the beaten track for imaging, devoting merely over an hour on Mastcam image resolution and ChemCam LIBS on Russell Pass, then one more upper arm basis for MAHLI images of Russell Pass, as well as lastly a ride in the mid-day. These plans, referred to "touch-and-go" strategies, are typically active at the beginning as well as slow by the end. Our travel this time around is considered to go ~ 10 meters just about completely eastern and leaving our moving almost completely west. If on Friday, our steering wheels are actually well on the Martian ground as well as there is a flat-enough bedrock surface area to put our exercise, we might be remaining for yet another two full weeks while our team try and also gather yet another Gediz Vallis network sample. And also considering that our company drive backwards along with the arm using up the rear end, we may even possess an office our team've already steered over - perhaps subjecting some inner base also just before boring.
