Moving away from the
forced hibernation, the rover “Curiosity " immediately proceeded to new
research. He even made a fence of new samples of Martian soil and made it into
powder with its onboard scientific instruments. Now, the rover is ready to
perform a complete chemical and spectral analysis of the obtained powder and
send the results to Earth at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (NASA).

": front left and right central. The diameter of every one circle is 50
inches. The rover be inside an locale call "Yellowknife Bay". Here he
conducts the fence and study of Martian soil.
The fence was made of
soil in the area on March 22 and on March 23 rocks were crushed and made into
powder for further analysis.
"Rover" Curiosity
"again took up his full research on the surface of the Red Planet" -
said the head of the mission project manager Jim Erickson Curiosity (Jim
Erickson) of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (NASA).
The scientist also said
that different portions of the Martian soil, rover collected during the same
drilling may show different results. That is why it is interesting to
investigate several different portions of soil from the same area.
After receiving the
results, the scientists from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory will analyze them
before they present to the public.
