Robotic Operations Continue at Mistastin

Today the second week of robotic operations began at Mistastin.  The astronaut team has left the ridge camp for a second location, leaving behind the rover team to do followup tasks for the next five days.  Today the rover traversed back to an outcrop on top of a ridge using its lidar vision sensor in order to conduct further scientific investigations.  Hopefully the backroom science team will command the robot to some new locations in the coming days.
