It must be something like that. From the press conference before last, it sounded as if the plan was to do science observations on a four-day rotation no matter where they were. But judging by what they were doing at the time, it seemed as if they were going to stop, dig a trench, and analyze the trench before moving on. But I haven't seen any trenches lately. (Not that I'm complaining - I want to get a good look at these hills!)
