Sols 4255-4256: Only Travelling through

.Finding ourselves lower than a meter from our enthusiastic end-of-drive on Monday, our experts started on an incredibly acquainted strategy: Starting along with an upper arm basis for eliminating dust and also making use of APXS to look into a base intended called "Russell Pass," putting the arm out of the way for image resolution, devoting just over a hr on Mastcam imaging as well as ChemCam LIBS on Russell Pass, at that point one more upper arm foundation for MAHLI photos of Russell Pass, and also finally a drive in the afternoon. These plans, called "touch-and-go" plans, are actually usually occupied at the beginning and reduce by the end. Our drive this moment is planned to go ~ 10 meters nearly perfectly eastern as well as leaving our heading almost completely west. If on Friday, our tires are actually sturdily on the Martian ground and also there is a flat-enough bedrock surface area to position our practice, our team may be remaining for one more two full weeks while our team make an effort and pick up one more Gediz Vallis network sample. And also considering that our team steer back along with the arm occupying the back, our team could also possess a workspace we've currently driven over - ideally subjecting some internal base also just before boring.
