It looks like #Perseverance went for the bacon¹ 🙂

On Sol 1168 the rover moved to RMC 52.5032 across the ancient riverbed and stopped a few meters away from a light colored layer of rock at the foot of the northern bank, which appears to be the same layer with that of Bright Angel.

¹"the bacon strip": unofficial name for a light colored layer of rock back at the Three Forks area.

@PaulHammond51

The HiRISE/USGS imagery has been imported into QGIS and since forgotten. I'm not fiddling with the rest of the imagery any more, though I used to do that earlier in this mission.

"Space economy" seems to have real impact on the way NASA engages with the public. I've spent a lot of time creating workflows with their data, e.g. for the reports, LA, etc, but they're now discontinuing services while the mission is still active. That's not very encouraging.

A new weather report has been received after more than 10 sols, albeit it's only for Sols 1010, 1011 and 1012.

It too shows that summer is over in Jezero Crater, and maximum temperatures have started reaching below -15°C again, while pressure keeps on rising rapidly.

It's now been more than a month since we last received a weather report from (Sol 962).

It's a pity, because we are at a time in the Martian year when maximum temperatures are expected, and this gap could leave an important part of the record incomplete.
