Sol 200 Update On Curiosity From USGS Scientist Ken Herkenhoff: Quiet Day


I'm scheduled as MAHLI/MARDI uplink lead 4 days this week. The first planning day, for Sol 200, was rather quiet for me, with just a single MAHLI activity (pulling old images out of the camera's memory and preparing less-compressed versions). Most of the rover power continues to be used to analyze the first drill sample in Chemin and SAM.
