MARS: CURIOSITY u krateru GALE Vol II.

sol 2560  pogled u smjeru kretanja

Inight krtica je na sol 318 zabijen do vrha i vjerojatno se nastavlja sa zabijanjem na isti način. Šta ti je snalažljivost...

Touch-And-Go… Towards Some Impressive Strata! Curiosity Rover Mission Update for Sol 2563: Written by Lauren Edgar, Planetary Geologist at USGS Astrogeology Science Center, October 21, 2019.
Curiosity is currently driving towards a good vantage point in Glen Torridon where we hope to assess the contact between two geologic units that were first identified from orbit, as seen in the above Navcam image. Since we’re approaching this transition, we want to make sure we get sufficient contact science to document any changes. Today’s plan includes contact science, a short science block, and a drive.
I was the SOWG Chair today, and it was a quick and straightforward planning day. We’ve implemented some new changes to our operations procedure to make things more efficient here on Earth. On Mars, Curiosity will begin her day with contact science on the target “Orkney” to assess the chemistry and sedimentary structures within a small block of bedrock. Then ChemCam will acquire a 10x1 raster across “Orkney,” and Mastcam will acquire three documentation images of the AEGIS targets from the weekend plan. Then Curiosity will take a short ~5 m drive to another small outcrop to prepare for even more contact science tomorrow. After the drive we’ll take post-drive imaging to prepare for upcoming targeting and driving. I can’t wait to see what these upcoming buttes reveal!

The Early Rover Gets the Frost? Curiosity Rover Mission Update for Sols 2564-2566: Written by Ryan Anderson, Planetary Geologist at USGS Astrogeology Science Center, October 23, 2019.
We’ve planned a busy next few sols for Curiosity! Sols 2564 starts off with ChemCam observations of the bedrock targets “Shetland” and “Pitmedden” and the vein “Gloup.” Mastcam will document those observation locations, and then take a small stereo mosaic of an outcrop named “Rock Nab.” These remote sensing observations will then be followed by contact science. MAHLI will observe the soil target “Clackmannanshire” as well as Shetland and Pitmedden, and will also take some routine monitoring pictures of the CheMin inlet. APXS will do a short observation of Clackmannanshire and an overnight observation on Shetland.
On Sol 2565 Curiosity will wake up extra early to do a ChemCam observation of the target Kinnordy, looking for any evidence of frost. This will be followed by Navcam movies watching for clouds and Mastcam observations to measure the dust in the atmosphere. After napping for a bit, ChemCam will repeat the observation of Kinnordy to compare with the early morning data, and Mastcam will document the target. We’ll then drive ~35 meters to the south and collect post-drive imaging, including some extra Navcams of the strata ahead and a Mastcam drive-direction panorama. Mastcam will also repeat its atmospheric dust observations.
Finally, on Sol 2566 Navcam will collect a dust devil movie and another cloud movie and ChemCam will make an autonomous measurement of a target in front of the rover. In the evening of sol 2566, MARDI will take a documentation image of the ground beneath the rover.

Zadnja inspekcija kotača.Od struke sam i ovakve stvari me uvijek razljute. 
Trebalo mi je manje od 5 minuta da ovo računskim putem dokažem kao pogrešno
rješenje. Da se pohvalim, računom sam dokazao i što bi i koja izvedba bila ispravna.
U sljedećoj misiji 2020 lim će biti deblji 2x i neće biti ovih bedastih cik-cak rebara.

InSight: 

Kao da se odustalo od prijašnjeg plana?  Skraćen put prema gore? Zna bit.

Moguće je, ali nisam siguran...imam premalo podataka.

Da, približno.
Pitanje je je li to znači i promjenu putanje uspinjanja...

Za to vrijeme InSight...uh, jebte...
