Update: Spirit
*SPIRIT UPDATE: Roving Toward the Hills, sol 143-144, June 03, 2004/
Spirit began sol 143 using the panoramic camera to image its
surroundings. After a restful nap, the rover began driving and advanced
69 meters (226.4 feet) in an engineer-directed drive toward the
"Columbia Hills." After doing some mid-drive science imaging, Spirit
attempted additional driving using its autonomous navigation software,
but detected hazards in the immediate vicinity of the rover and
therefore covered no additional ground.
On sol 144, Spirit covered 24.4 meters (80 feet) in another
engineer-directed drive. Once again, the terrain was too rough to permit
further driving beyond this point using the autonomous navigation
software. On sol 145, Spirit will continue driving in its quest for the
hills.
