.We are actually back ... practically, anyways. Today's vehicle parking location is actually very near where we stationed on sol 4253, and also in a place near some of the previous call scientific research targets "Revelation Peak." You may read through in this post that many of the group, this blogger consisted of, remained in Pasadena for our staff conference when we were last around. That was July as well as Inquisitiveness will turn 12 on Mars. Returning is actually a very uncommon affair and also is actually constantly intended carefully. One or two times throughout the last 12 years it took place because we viewed something "in the back mirror." Some of the instances is the intended "Old Soaker," where our team identified mud gaps in the images from a previous vehicle parking posture, as well as immediately went back since this was such a vital revelation. At other opportunities it was actually carefully intended, including the "hike" at "Pink Cliffs," which you can watch within this video recording coming from as lengthy back as Earth year 2015. In the past couple of organizing cycles, it's more of the latter as our team made our method coming from Finding Pinnacle, where our experts performed sol 4253, "Only going through" "Russell Pass" as well as getting to "Kings Canyon," our drill area, which we met on sol 4257. You can comply with all the activity of the exploration at Kings Gulch on the blogs. It took a while-- it consistently does-- because it is actually a task with several steps as well as inspections to complete. We actually celebrated Curiosity's 12th special day at Kings Canyon! Our company left on sol 4283, came back by means of "Basilica Top," and also are actually currently near the Revelation Peak area once more. After that little hike through the history of (some) of Interest's walkabouts, specifically the quite last one, let's take a look at today's plan.
