Memories from Februaries spent in the #Atacama desert. Team members would take nights off to recover from the heat and do laundry in town, pick up supplies at the hardware store.
Often we had to get those foil-faced windshield covers to protect computers that would overheat in the sun.
Driving through that otherworldly #landscape was exhilarating.

Meanwhile on Mars:
For those that have been following along. After several days of robotic arm gymnastics, the slab of rock that was stuck on Curiosity Rover's drill bit has finally been liberated.Animated HazCam GIF from Sol 4883 (April 2, 2026) Shows a pair of before and after liberation images.
