Paul HammondMeanwhile on Mars: Curiosity rover drove 18 meters further south into the canyon that it's traveling through to reach its next major science waypoint. The ~28 minute drive during sol 4484 (March 18, 2025) took the rover to site 114.918. Attached: DeBayered workspace mosaic, drive data and 2 traverse maps (different scales).
