Mars 360: NASA’s Mars Curiosity Rover - Sol 3871 (360video 8K)
NASA’s Mars Curiosity Rover Martian Solar Day 3871: Back on Track
The images for panorama obtained by the rover’s 34-millimeter Mast Camera. The mosaic, which stretches about 30,000 pixels width, includes 145 images taken on Sol 3871 (June 26, 2023).
We started planning today with the great news that our drive was successful! This put us in a perfect position for our split touch-and-go plan – lots to see, and no need to worry that we might be on unsteady footing, like we were on Friday.
Our two nearby targets are bedrock blocks: the nodular bedrock ‘Lousoi,’ which we’ll be investigating up close (the ‘touching’ in the touch-and-go) with APXS and MAHLI; and the ChemCam LIBS target, ‘Valvousi,’ which is on the face of another block. Adjacent to Valvousi is a small trench, which Mastcam will take a look at. Masctcam and ChemCam will also be looking further afield. Mastcam is taking a mosaic of the ridge to our south, and ChemCam is looking behind us towards the Gediz Vallis Ridge. After we finish up, we’re taking a late afternoon drive southeast along our alternate route.
After this busy sol, Curiosity will spend most of the second sol of the plan napping, but will wake up for a few observations around noon. ChemCam will use AEGIS to autonomously look for a post-drive target. ENV also has some of our normal atmospheric monitoring activities, including a suprahorizon cloud movie, a tau observation to monitor dust, and a 360 degree dust devil survey.
