Sols 4266-4267: Pleased 'Landiversary,' Curiosity

.After the normal morning regimen of carrying out some engineering house cleaning, Curiosity remains to take some remote control science reviews. Our team take a ChemCam LIBS observation as well as a Mastcam picture of the "Peeler Pond" intended, a dark, nodular aim at that seems much more erosion-resistant than neighboring rocks. By comparing Peeler Lake to "Kings Gulch" (which also has some blemishes), the science staff might have the ability to calculate more about their loved one compositions. ChemCam additionally takes RMI images of the Kings Gulch punch tailings. There is also a ChemCam RMI mosaic of Gediz Vallis as well as a Mastcam of the "Skies High Pond" aim at, which is a rock with a grey covering. The final trait within this scientific research block is an image down the CheMin inlet prior to our team supply sample to the equipment. After a long snooze, in the overdue afternoon our team possess the initial component of a large Mastcam mosaic of "Turning point Height" stations down payments as well as we add some even more structures to our on-going 360-degree scenic view. This late mid-day lighting fixtures helps highlight layers and structures. Our team also possess our usual DAN as well as REMS observations throughout the program.
