Sols 4255-4256: Merely Travelling through

.Finding our own selves lower than a gauge coming from our confident end-of-drive on Monday, our experts started on a very acquainted planning: Starting with an arm backbone for eliminating dust and also using APXS to check out a base intended named "Russell Pass," putting the upper arm out of the way for image resolution, spending just over an hour on Mastcam image resolution as well as ChemCam LIBS on Russell Pass, at that point another arm foundation for MAHLI pictures of Russell Pass, and also ultimately a travel in the mid-day. These programs, referred to "touch-and-go" plannings, are often active at the beginning and slow down in the end. Our travel this moment is actually prepared to go ~ 10 gauges virtually perfectly eastern and leaving our moving virtually flawlessly west. If on Friday, our wheels are actually well on the Martian ground and also there is a flat-enough bedrock surface area to put our exercise, we might be remaining for yet another pair of weeks while we make an effort and pick up yet another Gediz Vallis network example. And also considering that our company drive in reverse along with the arm taking up the back, we could also have an office our team have actually currently driven over - hopefully revealing some inner bedrock even prior to drilling.
