Sols 4316-4317: Searching for Sulfur

.Getting through the ruggedized, harsh Martian terrain is actually consistently a challenge, and also our current try to reach out to the "Sheep Creek" target highlights this. Our experts had aimed for little, far-off brilliant rocks, yet from 50 gauges away (regarding 164 feet), the minimal settlement of our photos created it difficult to adjust navigating. After an eager travel, the wanderer came agonizingly close-- ceasing only except these little brilliant stones. The stones, with their distinct pivoted and countered "weathering" pattern (imagined), definitely are similar to important sulfur shuts out that our company have actually experienced just before. Frustratingly, although the intended rocks were right under the main wheel as well as clearly noticeable in our navigation video cameras, they continued to be just out of grasp of the vagabond's arm.
