Here's a Sol 22 image of the new trenching area at the extreme right edge of the work area. I brightened the shadow to show the whole trench.

Can't wait for them to start digging deeper. Any ideas on how deep they would like to go? ... That's an easy one. ![]() I get the impression that the concern here is about a shallow ice table that might prevent digging deeply, thus the earlier suggestion that Phoenix might need to strip mine the national parks, to at least expose the topography of this local ice table. I suspect deeply-digging might be easier near the polygon boundaries, but I am not sure how those boundaries align with the digging degrees of freedom of the robotic arm. I can't wait to see what Phoenix does next... -------------------- ...Tom
