Thread created for posting MSL route maps and map updates.
Comments / suggestions adding value to the route maps are allowed, but discussions regarding the route itself and "future" paths are not. Use the currently active thread for the latter. Eduardo Tesheiner Moderator ----- Here's an updated map of activities near the landing site and the start of a map of the route to Glenelg. I may get one more step added to this before I have to take a break Aug. 31 to Sept 16, and I will resume it after that. Details will be revised as necessary as we go. Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

Coming up with drive stats, like the number of drives, for how much distance, what speed, etc. turns out to be tricky! Seems that the rover goes in short bursts, at least according to the SPICE data. Here's a speed vs. time plot of the last drive of about 21 meters on sol 133:
So it took about an hour, with a number of bursts of speed of about 3 cm/sec. Whew! Each sprint is about 1 meter. -------------------- |
