Wednesday 29th August Sol 23

We have started our drive East to the Glenelg junction.  We will go at about tens of metres per sol over the next few weeks.  Before every drive we take HazCam pictures from the wheel height of Curiosity to help us plot our path across the rocky plain, away from Bradbury Landing.  On our way we will also take some analyses of the rocks and soil.  The drive also gives some time to think about our results so far. 

What will it look like when we get to Glenelg?

‘The mere animal pleasure of travelling in a wild unexplored country is very great.’
