Curiosity update: ‘Finding a path’

Sol 986, May 15, 2015, update from USGS scientist Ryan Anderson: We’ve been having trouble with the path we originally wanted to take through the sand toward the interesting geology at “Mt. Stimson”, so in today’s plan we are going to take a careful look around to identify better routes. Mastcam has a 13×3 mosaic in the direction we want to go, as well as a 5×3 mosaic of Mt. Stimson and a 2×2 mosaic to fill a gap in a previous mosaic. [More at link]
