Is the current plan to find the smectite deposits, and are the clays expected to be near Argos, or further down slope into Marathon?

ADMIN: It looks like this is a good point to transition to a new topic from Sol 4078 - welcome to 'Marathon Valley'
Please continue to post pre-sol 4078 comments here. Post that date in the new topic. |

Sorry if this has already been covered, but what of this "dome" seen atop the hill in this image from Sol 4073? http://mars.nasa.gov/mer/gallery/all/1/p/4...6P2413R1M1.HTML
That certainly got the "anomaly crowd" going. http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread1094170/pg1 Could anyone please calculate the coordinates of this feature so that we could have a look in HiRISE imagery

Check Jan's post just a few up from yours to see this little rock in context. I think it's the one I have pointed out in this crop from Tim Parker's JPL map.

I don't have a sense of the size of the dome, but its shape reminds of something called an exfoliation dome. No need to invoke ETs', these form by a completely natural geologic process. I've seen a few in person at Big Bend in Texas. Those measured tens of feet in diameter and occurred more-or-less in a cluster. Hopefully, Oppy will get a closer look at this in the future!
