.Our team are back ... virtually, anyways. Today's car park area is incredibly near where our team positioned on sol 4253, as well as in a region near some of the previous call science targets "Revelation Epitome." You can go through in this blog that most of the staff, this writer included, was in Pasadena for our staff appointment when our team were actually last around. That was July and Curiosity will turn 12 on Mars. Returning is actually a very unusual event as well as is consistently planned thoroughly. One or two times in the course of the last 12 years it took place given that our team found something "in the rear looking glass." Among the examples is the target "Old Cloudburst," where we found dirt splits in the images from a previous parking setting, as well as promptly went back due to the fact that this was such a crucial discovery. At other opportunities it was actually meticulously intended, such as the "hike" at "Pink Cliffs," which you may view in this video clip coming from as lengthy back as The planet year 2015. In the past handful of planning patterns, it's additional of the second as our company created our means coming from Breakthrough Epitome, where our team got on sol 4253, "Merely going through" "Russell Pass" as well as coming to "Kings Canyon," our drill place, which our team reached on sol 4257. You can easily follow all the action of the drilling at Kings Canyon on the blog posts. It took a while-- it regularly does-- given that it's a task along with several steps and investigations to accomplish. Our company in fact commemorated Inquisitiveness's 12th birthday celebration at Kings Gulch! Our experts departed on sol 4283, went back via "Sanctuary Top," and also are currently near the Discovery Epitome area again. After that little hike through the history of (some) of Curiosity's walkabouts, especially the quite final one, let's examine today's strategy.
