Sols 4316-4317: Seeking for Sulfur

.Browsing the durable, demanding Martian terrain is actually always a problem, and also our latest effort to connect with the "Sheep Creek" target highlights this. Our team had actually aimed for small, far-off bright rocks, yet from 50 meters away (regarding 164 feets), the minimal resolution of our pictures created it hard to adjust navigation. After an enthusiastic drive, the vagabond came agonizingly close-- ceasing only short of these little vivid stones. The stones, with their unique pivoted and also matched "enduring" pattern (envisioned), definitely look like elemental sulfur obstructs that our team have actually encountered prior to. Frustratingly, although the aim at rocks corrected under the main tire and also plainly obvious in our navigating electronic cameras, they stayed just out of range of the wanderer's division.
