As we are about to end our study of The Cobble Santorini and getting ready to hit the road again.
I think it's time we start a new topic on the drive to come. What challenges do we face and can we keep to solid pavement as much as possible and a Merry Christmas to our little buddies on The Planet Mars. |

Also, these MIs look suspiciously like the MIs I recall from the dark soils north of Victoria (in the deposition vs. sweeping investigations). Are we certain these are MIs from recent sols? And not just old images being flushed from the flash?
