Sols 4255-4256: Simply Going through

.Discovering our own selves lower than a meter coming from our hopeful end-of-drive on Monday, our company began on an incredibly familiar plan: Beginning along with an upper arm basis for eliminating dust and also using APXS to check out a base intended called "Russell Pass," placing the arm off the beaten track for imaging, devoting simply over a hr on Mastcam image resolution and ChemCam LIBS on Russell Pass, then another upper arm backbone for MAHLI pictures of Russell Pass, and also eventually a ride in the afternoon. These programs, referred to as "touch-and-go" strategies, are commonly occupied at the start as well as decrease by the end. Our travel this time around is prepared to go ~ 10 gauges nearly wonderfully east and leaving our heading virtually completely west. If on Friday, our steering wheels are sturdily on the Martian ground as well as there is a flat-enough bedrock area to put our exercise, we could be staying for another two weeks while our experts try as well as accumulate yet another Gediz Vallis channel sample. As well as because our team steer back with the arm using up the back, our experts might also have a workspace our team've actually driven over - ideally exposing some inner base even prior to exploration.
