.The focus for this three-sol weekend break strategy is providing a part of the Kings Gulch punch sample to SAM for Evolved Fuel Study (EGA), observing on from an effective CheMin review.

This will certainly help inform the source( s) of the blocks, which could be stemmed from higher up on Mount Sharp..
