Midnight Planets has reported Curiosity's movement of ~46.3m WSW (-116º) on Sol 1353.
Only 7 L-NavCams were available for this rough & ready stitch in MS ICE, the raws are a little overexposed, but they may assist in pinpointing the location. I cropped the stitch a little to get it under the upload limit. I'll post the full resolution 360 on an image host as the images become available, unless someone beats me to it |

JPL have issued PIA20748 on its Photojournal page, it presents information relating to Curiosity's first 14 rock / soil sampling sites which are shown on a full traverse map.
I have attached the 'modest' version of the image. The full size image is available on this link and the catalog page: PIA20748 In addition to dates and site reference numbers for the activities, they have also provided the elevation data for the first 11 drill sites. I can't recall seeing that data in a release before, so it may be of interest to those who follow Curiosity's ongoing journey They also released 2 versions of the recent MAHLI self portrait at the 'Okoruso' drill site: see PIA20602 and PIA20603 |
