In Toronto, April is showing its typical indecisive weather patterns, unable to fully commit to being springtime. Meanwhile, over in Gale Crater on Mars, spring is in full swing and the rover Curiosity is taking full advantage of the warmer temperatures. With longer days and pleasant weather, both myself and Curiosity are feeling a surge of energy and a desire to be outdoors, exploring and enjoying the season.
Curiosity has been experiencing an abundance of power lately, allowing for exciting exploration missions. Today’s plans are no different, providing ample opportunities for the rover to roam and investigate its surroundings. While my own garden may be lush and green, Curiosity’s “garden” on Mars offers a unique and intriguing landscape to explore and discover.
