A 136 meter (446 ft) move to the West for Perseverance rover, its the first drive of 2025, includes a record 34.15 m (112 ft) move downslope on mission Sol 1380 (January 6, 2025).

Based on yesterday's images, they're thinking of drilling again, but we've moved 30 m downhill since! I guess Percy was being an impatient horsey again (and to be fair, we hadn't moved in over a week anyway).
17 days sat in one place is a long time without coring. I'm glad we're back on the road again.
Looking at the post-drive NavCam images we have so far, there are no hi-res images of the fractured bedrock in the workspace, so I'm assuming there will be another drive to the East on 1381, closing in on the next science waypoint :)
