Ooh, it seems we've rounded a bend!
Could be here for a few days :)
They've already done an abrasion patch at the 1333 site, and given the mission's emphasis on Pico Turquino, one would assume that they're going to core here as well, but the rover team has been surprising me lately. I must say that the exposed interior we're seeing on 1334 isn't what I expected, but I'd like to see the night-time LED images before getting too caught up here.
Agreed, the LED images will tell a tale. I'm guessing they may have a small walk about and possibly another abrasion (or two) before deciding to core, but it's hard to read their minds. With the job cuts, I'm assuming any chance of more frequent mission updates has little chance
