SOL1892-PIA12078.jpg
SOL1892-PIA12078.jpgTroy - Sol 1892 (Natural - but strongly enhanced - Colors; credits: NASA/JPL-Caltech/Cornell University)54 visiteCaption NASA:"The soft soil exposed when wheels of NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Spirit dug into a patch of ground dubbed "Troy" exhibit variations in hue visible in this image, in which the colors have been stretched to emphasize the differences.

Spirit used its PanCam during the 1892nd Martian Day, or Sol, of the Rover's mission on Mars (April 29, 2009) to take the three images combined into this composite image. The 3 images were taken through filters centered at wavelengths of 750, 530 and 430 nanometers. Spirit had become embedded at Troy by about a week later.

The two rocks near the upper right corner of this view are each about 10 cm (4") long and 2 to 3 cm (1") wide".

SOL1899-JC4_A1899_front_hazcam.jpgSoft Ground and Husband Hill - Sol 189955 visiteWheel slippage during attempts to extricate NASA's Mars Rover Spirit from a patch of soft ground during the preceding two weeks had partially buried the wheels by the 1899th Sol of the Spirit's Mission on Mars (May 6, 2009).

Spirit took this image with its Front HazCam on Sol 1899. With Spirit in the position shown here, the rover team temporarily suspended driving attempts while studying the ground around Spirit and planning simulation tests of driving options with a test rover at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif.

Driving attempts between the time Spirit took a similar image (see PIA12002) 10 Soles earlier and when this image was taken moved the Rover a total of about 36 cm (14").

While driving backwards, the Rover drags its right front wheel, which no longer rotates. For scale, the distance between the wheel tracks is about 1 meter (40"). This view is looking Northward, with Husband Hill on the horizon.

The foreground shows that Spirit's left-rear wheel (on the right from this viewpoint) churned up bright-toned material when the Rover was becoming embedded at this position, but that the right-rear wheel did not.
