At long last, the MSL team has resumed planning science observations!
I was MAHLI/MARDI uplink lead on Monday, and although we didn't plan
any activities with those cameras, it was good to be involved in
tactical operations again. The engineering team is still working to
fully understand the Sol 200 anomaly, so we are proceeding carefully,
not using the arm yet.
