Studies of 'Amboy' Rock Continue as Solar Energy ImprovesPasadena CA (JPL) Apr 30, 2012 Opportunity is positioned on the north end of Cape York on the rim of Endeavour Crater with an approximate 15-degree northerly tilt for favorable solar energy production. The solar insolation is improving and the rover has benefitted from some small, dust cleaning events. Radio Doppler tracking passes for the geo-dynamic investigation were performed on Sols 2927, 2931 and 2933 (April 18, 22 and 24, 2012). The project is also continuing the regular campaign of Microscopic Imager mosaics of th ... read more |
