Good morning, I’m Byron Jones and this is the Flight Director report for Tuesday, December 13th.
On Spirit today is sol 692. Over the weekend she finished up the Moessbauer and Alpha Particle X-ray Spectrometer work, stowed her arm and drove toward the outcrop called Comanche. Today and throughout the rest of the week she will be driving towards the new outcrop called Miami. And this upcoming weekend we will be demonstrating a UHF communications pass with a relay through the Mars Express orbiter. On the other side of Mars it’s sol 671 for Opportunity and yesterday, sol 670, marked the date of her first birthday on Mars. Last night Opportunity successfully unstowed her robotic arm and they’ll be planning to use it this upcoming week. Well that’s it for today, I’m Byron Jones and that’s what’s happening on Mars today. |
