However, it is possible to advance two hops of 50 meters each one after a pause of 2-3 hours to cool things?

Over the Memorial Weekend we had a 4 Sols pause and the RF currents came downa bit just to jump right back at the same level. I think we just have to live with it.

QUOTE drive shorter distances and drive more days Yes that seems like a sensible approach that ensures slower but sure & steady progress ... 50 meters at each driveable sol plus keeping the intermediate science stops short (like one week instead of 4+ weeks thus sparing the more complex science tasks and IDD hardware wear for the ultimate loooong science stop at Endeavour |
