New abrasion attempt - likely failed (Sol 1565)
New abrasion attempt - likely failed (Sol 1565)
The abrasion bit and the target boulder/large cobble clearly slipped during the operation, and we only have 13 minutes worth of frames for this animation, so I'm sure the abrasion ended prematurely. Later frames, however, show that some powder/tailings were generated during the operation, so it should be interesting to see what the partial abrasion patch looks like.
UPDATE: Now using the animation (with timestamps) provided by Paul Hammond in this thread.
Here's a version with timestamps :)
Thanks, Paul! I've updated the post, using the animation you've provided.
Catching up after 2 days off Mars (trip to our highlands) :)
