Curiosity brushed and analyzed 5 rock targets using APXS and MAHLI instruments on its robotic arm.
Rover engineers safely navigated the rover along a drive path crossing 23 miles (37 km) of cumulative distance and over 4,400 feet (1.35 km) of elevation gain.
The team conducted observations with APXS, ChemCam, MAHLI, and Mastcam as Curiosity approaches the Yardang unit in Gale crater.
