Sols 4257-4258: A Little Nudge on Kings Gulch

.The Practice Sol 1 program has two reasons-- initial to find out if our target, Kings Canyon, satisfies the science groups criteria for sampling-- for example, is it compositionally interesting? The second objective is actually to identify if the stone as well as details aim for, are actually safe to bore can it deal with the forces coming from the practice, for instance. Our team contact this task a "drill preload test." Therefore, the main activities in today's program are the preload examination as well as connect with science on Kings Gulch-- our team will certainly first comb the target to get rid of area dust and after that take close-up imaging along with our MAHLI musical instrument and compositional data along with our APXS tool.
