.We are actually back ... practically, anyways. Today's parking place is quite close to where our experts stationed on sol 4253, and in a place near among the previous call scientific research targets "Revelation Pinnacle." You can review in this particular blog that most of the team, this blog owner included, was in Pasadena for our staff conference when we were last in this field. That was actually July and Interest was about to switch 12 on Mars. Coming back is an incredibly uncommon event and is actually always considered very carefully. One or two times throughout the final 12 years it took place since our team viewed something "in the back mirror." Among the instances is the aim at "Old Cloudburst," where our company found dirt fractures in the photos from a previous car park placement, and also without delay got back since this was actually such an important revelation. At other times it was very carefully intended, including the "walkabout" at "Pink Cliffs," which you may enjoy in this particular video clip coming from as lengthy back as Planet year 2015. In the past few planning cycles, it is actually even more of the last as our company made our way from Finding Peak, where our team performed sol 4253, "Just travelling through" "Russell Successfully pass" and coming to "Kings Gulch," our practice place, which our team achieved on sol 4257. You can easily comply with all the action of the exploration at Kings Canyon on the blogging sites. It took a while-- it regularly carries out-- due to the fact that it's an activity along with lots of actions and also inspections to finish. Our experts actually celebrated Curiosity's 12th birthday celebration at Kings Gulch! We left on sol 4283, went back via "Sanctuary Peak," and also are actually currently near the Discovery Epitome area again. Afterwards little bit of hike with the past history of (some) of Interest's hikes, particularly the really last one, allow's take a look at today's strategy.
