Was not expecting that U-turn 🤔 Maybe some of the post drilling data was corrupted which forced a return? Time will tell :)

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.

This was not on my Mars Bingo Card.

Curiosity rover lifts the rock that is stuck to its drill, gives it a shake which liberated some loose material, but fails to dislodge the errant rock on Sol 4881 (April 30, 2026). The team has an option to eject the drill bit assembly and use one of its spare drill bits, but I assume that will be the last resort. Animated HazCam GIF with timestamps.

Meanwhile in Gale Crater.

In this animated GIF we can see dust cascading from the rock that appears to have been lifted by Curiosity's drill bit. The timestamps show the 9 HazCam images were acquired over 15 minutes on Sol 4879 (April 28, 2026). I'm assuming the dust was liberated by the operation of one of the voice coils in the drill. This attempt to free the drill bit does not appear to have been successful.

Meanwhile on Mars:
Did Curiosity Rover just lift a rock after drilling into it? Here's a short animation of its drilling operation with timestamps on front HazCam images from Sol 4877 (April 26, 2026)

The first subframe image shows the drill above the target prior to drilling, the next four images show last images of the drilling phase. The last frame was acquired after they raised the robotic arm.

Okay, folks, gather 'round, because you are not going to believe this one. My friend who is working at NASA told me this confidential news , but i can finally spill the beans: NASA is officially running NetBSD.

Yeah, you heard that right. Turns out, when you need an OS that can literally run on a potato *and* survive the vacuum of space without a hiccup, you do not mess around. They have been working under wraps with their deep space division on something they are calling "AstroBSD."

Apparently, the Perseverance rover on Mars? Yeah, it is not just taking pretty pictures; it is crunching data with a custom NetBSD kernel.

This just proves what foundation has been saying forever: "Of course it runs NetBSD!" From your ancient router to a rover on another planet.

NASA's Perseverance Rover has confirmed an ancient river system existed in the Jezero Delta region of Mars billions of years ago.

Perseverance's RIMFAX, a ground-penetrating radar instrument took measurements over the course of 78 traverses between Sept 2023 and Feb 2024, collecting data along a trail some 6.1 kilometers (3.8 miles) long. Those measurements penetrated to depths greater than 35 meters (115 feet).

This is the latest finding adding to multiple lines of evidence show that water once flowed abundantly on Mars. https://www.sciencealert.com/hidden-ancient-river-system-found-deep-under-the-surface-of-mars #Mars #Space #Perseverance #MarsRover #NASA #JezeroDelta #Water #WaterOnMars #Radar #RIMFAX #RedPlanet

Meanwhile on Mars:
Perseverance rover completed a 15 minute drive to site 87.0 on March 5, 2026 (Sol 1792). This post-drive roughly processed image was assembled / cropped from 6 post-drive NavCam tiles. I'll add the drive details and updated location map in the comments. Image Credits: NASA/JPL-Caltech.

Curiosity Mars rover used LED lights on the end of its robotic arm to create this rare nighttime view of the Red Planet’s surface on December 6, 2025, the 4,740th Martian day, or sol, of the rover’s mission.

A small selection of overlapping MAHLI images from sol 4750 (December 17, 2025) assembled in MS-ICE of an interesting feature in Curiosity rover's current workspace.

Additional focus stacked images are likely still on the rover, but I think these few cover the most interesting part of the target.

Mars Guy: Episode 239.
Mars is notorious for having copious amounts of dust, so when the dust cover of the highest resolution camera on Perseverance could not be closed, it seemed doomed. Here’s what’s happened after 21 months uncovered.

Meanwhile on Mars: An uphill drive lasting ~67 minutes for Perseverance rover during mission Sol 1661 (October 22, 2025). The distance was ~44 meters due north, climbing ~9.2 meters, with an end-of-drive tilt of 18.7°.

Attached is a processed rear HazCam image looking downslope at its wheel tracks, the drive data, and screen captures of the updated mission map (with scale bars).
