It was already said that those structures seen on previous hazcam pics (well, in all sort of cameras and filters...) were delicate.

But what about these ones? It looks like the smallest touch could broke them.

PS: It's time to open a new thread, don't you think so?

Good idea. That topic was "tired" and had the cord showing. smile.gif biggrin.gif tongue.gif

Delicate, to be sure. One thing I've noticed is that the "ledge-forming" rocks are a layer and extend to the right and left of where we camped out. I wonder if that feature is related to the bluff at Mogollon Rim?

We need to check out the "mobile dust" at that site and see if there has been more movement during the stopover.

It would be nice to have the IDD instruments, but with reconnaisance geology the primary thing one needs is boots and eyes (ie, a mobile Rover with functional Pancams); the handlens and scratchplate are useful but not essential. Oppy needs to stow the IDD and get to the next outcop...

Bill: I am in total agreement. They need to find a way to stow it and get moving again. I doubt we will find anything so totally different that we can't visually understand it. Ben

Ahhhh. I think I detect a gauntlet hurled to the dust! Visual vs. Analytical Geology. biggrin.gif I love it!
I wonder how that debate might have fared in Gusev Crater - up until we arrived at Home Plate.
I wonder if Victoria will become the HP of Meridiani. rolleyes.gif

P.S. I hope we are all praying fervently for the recovery of Exploratorium. Where there's life there's hope.
