She's there! Opportunity drove down to the "Cook Haven" bright outcrops on Sol 3512.
Even better, news via Twitter that currents on the front right wheel are back to normal. Phew. |

Interesting; I think there's more than a few pebbles disturbed. Here's a second attempt at a comparison, and you can see it looks like some bedrock has been disturbed (second circled area). (EDIT: Oops... actually not. On closer inspection, looks like it's just some dirt that got spread on the bedrock.)
Pinnacle Island is more or less northeast of the rover, so it's probably downslope. MERBSol3528-3540PinnacleIslandComparison2 on Flickr |
