This striking image is a mosaic of navigation camera images, at Junda outcrop with Mt. Sharp in the background. Junda is a place in W. Australia, which is where we are taking our locality names from in this part of our traverse.
We are setting some records for driving distance, having recently done 100 m in one sol. At our next ‘waypoint’ stop at Kimberley which we will reach in the next few days, we aim to do some detailed contact science.
