What's wrong with SHERLOC? (lemmy.world)

This raw image shows SHERLOC's cover (bottom center) stuck partially open, or partially closed, whichever (hopefully closed). This image was from sol 1041. I see more raw images tonight that still show SHERLOC taking vague and foggy images, the same as the ones posted before and after this raw image. I'm assuming this is still an issue. What's the level of concern? What options do they have?

She's stout , and she has the worlds best Engineers, Scientists, and Support Staff. Still, fingers crossed, and hope for the best.

Where's Flight 68? I still only see two raw image files from it.

SHERLOC - Sol 915 - 5cm diameter abrasion patch by dingbizcuit in c/perseverancerover@lemmy.world

What's up with the CacheCam images from sol 913? It appears to be a sealed sample?

Here’s what the Perseverance rover has learned so far (Catch up on the Mars 2020 mission in 2023.) by dingbizcuit in c/perseverancerover@lemmy.world

So they're going for another Three Forks style sample drop when they reach the rim? What are the pros and cons of that?

Perseverance has started to core the top of the 'Mount Meeker' by dingbizcuit in c/perseverancerover@lemmy.world

Basically they take a geological region from somewhere here on earth, such as Colorado or The Rocky Mountains, and take names from those regions.

They sure are giving this abrasion a very thorough look. What are they seeing in it? IANAGOAA (I am neither a geologist or an astrobiologist)

I love Imgur and think its a great sight for images. So this is a great work around! Thank you for taking the time to do all this.

Cleaning a patch of rock with a puff of compressed nitrogen (GDRT) by dingbizcuit in c/perseverancerover@lemmy.world

When this image first came down I thought it looked as if someone had taken a pencil and scribbled on the side of this large rock. This is a much more plausible explanation I think.
