What now? (1) - Sol 589
|
Perched on the crest Husband Hill, Spirit took images for a Summit Panorama and used instruments on the RA to investigate soil targets.
The Science Team has compiled a list of experiments they would like Spirit to execute while the Rover is on the summit. This list includes:
- Assess the inner basin and image potential drive paths
- Assess the surrounding terrain and image "Cumberland Ridge";
- Routinely observe the atmosphere during the day and the moons at night;
- Study undisturbed soils, scuffed soils, and drift deposits;
- Study the structural geology of Husband Hill, including dips;
- Observe outcrops and rocks;
- Take images for a rover self-portrait;
- Complete a panorama on top of the "Columbia Hills";
- Finalize exit strategy.
