Reminds me of Spirit's journey down Husband Hill. Downhill is always easier, even on Mars!

QUOTE (Explorer1 @ Apr 21 2017, 09:23 PM) ...Downhill is always easier, even on Mars! Not really. When going straight uphill the worst that is going to happen is that you can't, you just roll back and try a different route. When going downhill it is possible you can't control the vehicle's path. If the path the vehicle is taking is leading to an obstacle, you are toast (# Wopmay?). That is going to be the biggest challenge when driving down Perseverance Valley. Fortunately I don't have much hair to lose anymore.

Will new crater get a look, or straight to Perseverance Valley?

QUOTE (Floyd @ Apr 23 2017, 04:19 PM) Will new crater get a look, or straight to Perseverance Valley? Looks as if they're beelining it to Perseverance Valley. I'm guessing that the science value of looking at a channel up close for the first time outweighs whatever the new crater excavated. Probably a good idea to get in a good chunk of the observation campaign in before winter, just in case. |
