Sols 4316-4317: Hunting for Sulfur

.Navigating the ruggedized, unforgiving Martian landscapes is regularly a difficulty, and our latest attempt to connect with the "Lambs Creek" aim at highlights this. Our team had actually tried for small, distant vivid rocks, but from 50 meters away (about 164 feets), the limited resolution of our images made it hard to tweak navigation. After an ambitious travel, the vagabond happened agonizingly close-- stopping simply short of these small bright stones. The rocks, with their distinctive pivoted and also countered "enduring" pattern (visualized), firmly appear like elemental sulfur shuts out that our experts have actually faced just before. Frustratingly, although the aim at rocks corrected under the frontal steering wheel as well as clearly visible in our navigating cams, they continued to be contemporary of grasp of the wanderer's division.
