At the fork in the road

At the fork in the road
At the fork in the road As Opportunity trekked deeper into Perseverance Valley In December 2017, the rover came to a “fork in the road,” where she stopped for the winter holiday break. While the human crew mostly took time off, the robot field geologist worked. She used her Navigation Camera to take the raw images that Stuart Atkinson processed into this version of her view across the fork in the road. NASA / JPL-Caltech
