    Posted by jbridges in Mars Science Laboratory Blog on January 21, 2015 The MSL science operations have stood down for a few days whilst a software upgrade goes ahead.  Soon we will recommence the drilling campaign.

  • 19th July 2016 Sol 1405

    Posted by jbridges in Mars Science Laboratory Blog on July 19, 2016 MSL is back and working as normal. This MastCam picture shows that even at this early stage of the dust season (ls = 190 ie we haven’t reached perihelion of Mars orbit yet) the crater rim is becoming obscured.

  • 12th August 2016 Sol 1428

    Posted by jbridges in Mars Science Laboratory Blog on August 12, 2016 Our latest drill hole – Marimba – has a distinctly reddish colour.  This probably means it has a lot of ferric oxide in it.

  • February 16th 2013 Sol 189

    Posted by jbridges in Mars Science Laboratory Blog on February 16, 2013 This image shows the row of 10 laser spots shot by ChemCam in the drill tailings.   This is one of our first analyses prior to the analysis of material by CheMin and SAM.

  • 28th December 2015 Sol 1206

    Posted by jbridges in Mars Science Laboratory Blog on December 28, 2015 The MSL team is taking a break from operations for a few days.  We have dumped the Greenhorn drill tailings and are progressing on the Bagnold Dunes campaign.
