not sure yet, still waiting for the drive info from JPL. Here’s the data from the sol 15 drive:-
Drive
- Sol: 15 (March 6, 2021)
- Distance (point-to-point): 36.39 meters (120 feet)
- Heading: ~North
- Rover Pointing (yaw): 88.6° (0° = North)
- Rover Pitch: 1.68°
- Rover Roll: 1.7°
- Start coordinates: 77.450886, 18.444627°
- End coordinates: 77.451034°, 18.445135°
- Site Index: 3
- Drive index: 386
- Total distance: 42.64m (139.9 feet)
This is purely a guess, but Percy appears to be heading towards the blue route. My source: Where is the rover link.

A Dillingham pilot says he spotted the creature while flying passengers to Manokotak last week. He calculated that its wingspan matched the length of a wing on his Cessna 207. That’s about 14 feet.
As of 26 January, 2022, there are 20,021! (wait, whAT?!
