Sols 4266-4267: Satisfied 'Landiversary,' Curiosity

.After the typical early morning routine of carrying out some engineering house cleaning, Interest remains to take some distant science reviews. Our experts take a ChemCam LIBS monitoring as well as a Mastcam photo of the "Peeler Pond" intended, a darkened, nodular target that seems a lot more erosion-resistant than nearby stones. By comparing Peeler Pond to "Kings Canyon" (which likewise has some nodules), the science staff might manage to figure out more about their loved one structures. ChemCam likewise takes RMI images of the Kings Gulch punch tailings. There is actually additionally a ChemCam RMI variety of Gediz Vallis as well as a Mastcam of the "Heavens High Pond" aim at, which is actually a stone along with a gray finishing. The final trait in this particular science block is a graphic down the CheMin inlet just before our team provide example to the instrument. After a lengthy snooze, in the overdue afternoon our experts possess the 1st component of a sizable Mastcam mosaic of "Milestone Optimal" stations deposits and we include some additional frameworks to our ongoing 360-degree scenic view. This late mid-day lighting helps highlight layers and appearances. We also have our normal DAN as well as REMS monitorings throughout the program.
