Curiosity’s robotic arm workspace mosaic assembled from 15 overlapping Bayer reconstructed images. It reached this location on sol 4621 after a drive of close to 15 meters, to the base of a nearby ridge to investigate the cross-cutting veins that appeared pervasive throughout the outcrop.

    Oh yes, I would have turned around and back-tracked to touch these “etched” skeletal rocks too!

    Is Curiosity picking up the bad habit of running back and forth excitedly from Perseverance? I hope so!

      I hope so too, although I recall a few times Curi went on ‘walkabout’ many years ago :)
