Margin' up the Scar Rim!

.Because beginning its high drive up the scar rim, Perseverance has been actually negotiating along the edge of the margin unit (the scope of the scope!), an enigmatic unit abundant in carbonates, a mineral group carefully linked to habitability. Here, the wanderer crew scouted out a pile of rock called "Presence Void," where Perseverance removed the messy, timeworn area with its trustworthy abrading little bit. The leading abraded spot, called Eremita Mesa, is actually imagined over being actually investigated through Willpower's distance science tools placed on its automated upper arm. This consists of taking close-up images to review the millimeter-scale fragments that compose the stone, making use of the WATSON (Wide Slant Topographic Sensor for Operations and also eNgineering) electronic camera, which performs as Perseverance's magnifying glass.
