    With no road maps on Mars, I’m building my own as I go. There are lots of places I want to explore, and mapping while I drive will help me see and do more. Let the road trip begin.

    Practicing my coordination. I recently docked my arm w/ my “bit carousel” for the first time. This is where I’ll load up drill bits and drop off samples to be processed inside. Important step!

    I’m preparing to collect Martian samples in the search for ancient microbial life. As part of the process, I’ve been testing out the coring system on my robotic arm to make sure it works properly before I drill some of the interesting rocks around me.

    Testing out my tools as I move into more science. Used my robotic arm to get right up close to this rock after zapping it with my laser. Can you tell I’m really into rocks?

    The time has come: I’m switching from on-scene photographer to science investigator. Did this ancient lakebed ever have life? The tools I brought will help begin the hunt. I’m a bot on a mission.

    Fifth flight successful! The begins a new phase to test the future of aerial exploration.

    Excelsior! The completed its 1st one-way trip and 5th flight on Mars. It touched down at its new location, kicking off a new demo phase where we test this new tech and see how it can aid future missions on Mars and other worlds.
