Earth planning date: Tuesday, Sept. 3, 2024<\/p>\n
Curiosity has returned to \u201cMcDonald Pass,\u201d a block within Gediz Vallis that we first spotted about a month ago (as seen in the above Front Hazcam image). The block shows some interesting zonation \u2014 the distribution of textures and colors into different areas, or zones. We\u2019re hoping that by studying the well-exposed relationships between white, gray, and tan material at this location that we\u2019ll be able to better understand similar relationships that we\u2019ve observed elsewhere. The drive over the weekend got us back to McDonald Pass, but perhaps one step too far. We realized that the best spot to study these zones is directly beneath the rover, so today\u2019s plan includes contact science and a short bump to position the rover for even more science tomorrow.<\/p>\n
Today was a rare one-sol plan, to account for the U.S. holiday yesterday. I was on shift as the Long Term Planner and it was a fairly straightforward day once we established the best locations for contact science. The plan starts with a DRT and APXS on the central part of the slab, at a target named \u201cErin Lake.\u201d Then we have a remote sensing block, which begins with some environmental monitoring to search for dust devils, measure atmospheric opacity, and monitor the movement of fines on the rover deck. The Geology Theme group planned ChemCam LIBS on the darker gray rim of this block at \u201cParis Lake,\u201d along with a ChemCam passive observation on an interesting dark float block nearby. There\u2019s also a long distance RMI mosaic to assess the yardang unit higher on Mount Sharp, and a Mastcam mosaic to evaluate the textures in a row of large clasts. Later in the afternoon, Curiosity will acquire MAHLI images of Erin Lake and another target, \u201cPicture Puzzle,\u201d which captures the white, gray, and tan zones. Then Curiosity will take a short drive back about 1 meter (about 3.3 feet) to position a white and gray clast in our workspace for even more contact science tomorrow.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Will McDonald Pass be the key to understanding the zonation observed in blocks throughout this region? Stay tuned!<\/p>\n
