Sols 4316-4317: Searching for Sulfur

.Getting through the durable, demanding Martian terrain is actually constantly an obstacle, as well as our recent try to get to the "Sheep Spring" intended highlights this. Our team had actually gone for small, remote brilliant stones, yet from fifty gauges away (regarding 164 feet), the restricted settlement of our photos made it tough to fine-tune navigating. After an enthusiastic ride, the wanderer happened agonizingly close-- quiting merely short of these tiny bright stones. The stones, along with their distinct pivoted as well as matched "weathering" pattern (imagined), highly appear like important sulfur blocks out that our company've run into just before. Frustratingly, although the aim at stones were right under the main steering wheel and also clearly noticeable in our navigation cameras, they stayed just out of grasp of the rover's division.
