Sols 4266-4267: Pleased 'Landiversary,' Curiosity

.After the usual morning regimen of performing some engineering housework, Interest remains to take some remote control science observations. Our experts take a ChemCam LIBS observation and a Mastcam picture of the "Peeler Pond" intended, a darkened, nodular target that appears to be even more erosion-resistant than surrounding rocks. By contrasting Peeler Lake to "Kings Gulch" (which likewise has some nodules), the scientific research team may have the capacity to calculate even more regarding their loved one compositions. ChemCam also takes RMI photos of the Kings Gulch bore tailings. There is actually additionally a ChemCam RMI variety of Gediz Vallis as well as a Mastcam of the "Heavens High Pond" intended, which is actually a rock with a grey layer. The last trait in this particular scientific research block is a photo down the CheMin inlet just before our team deliver sample to the equipment. After a long snooze, in the late mid-day our team possess the first portion of a sizable Mastcam variety of "Breakthrough Peak" channel deposits as well as our experts include some more frames to our continuous 360-degree view. This late mid-day illumination helps highlight levels as well as structures. Our team also have our normal DAN and REMS monitorings throughout the strategy.
