#PhotoOfTheDay is an aisle of the old Map Room at the USGS West Coast Headquarters in Menlo Park, California. This place was like a temple to topographic maps, with some very old handmade benchmark disks on display too.
Sadly, it's been gone for a while now. We did an interview with the head of mapping there (I was helping to make a benchmarking video) and he explained that he had none of his people left that did actual field work. :(

#Perseverance moved a little again. These days a simple detour around a regolith bump seems to be a real feat for the rover, and to take ages to plan and complete.
Oh, then… maybe that Visual Language Model, a.k.a. "AI" is involved again? That could explain the extreme caution of the operators that we are witnessing.
But that's just speculation. We've been living in the dark since the team's last report in December last year.

New AI Tool Forecasts Drought 90 Days Ahead Nationwide
The USGS River DroughtCast tool may provide communities extra time to prepare for water shortages that could impact agriculture, municipal supplies, recreation and ecosystems.
