It's not easy to figure out where to divide threads, but we just had a drive on sol 72 which I think we could say signifies the beginning of the traverse to the south and the start of regular science operations. Originally I expected a clean break with helicopter operations but we are not getting such an obvious dividing point.
So I am taking it on myself to start a new thread for the exploration mission. If the timing seems wrong people can let me know.

I think that may not be damage, it looks like it's the 'SLI' (single layer insulation) which is part of the gDRT system. It's purpose is described in this PDF as a blanket of insulation covered in black Kapton tape LINK, there are some sketches etc in the PDF but they're not that detailed. However, I've not managed to find an image of it before launch.
