One target - two cameras

One target - two cameras

The boulder in front of the rover is being imaged by the SHERLOC camera. The HazCam captured SHERLOC taking the image of the top of the boulder. They have also used the PIXL instrument on the same target. PIXL measures the fine-scale chemical makeup of rocks using an X-ray spectrometer and a camera. This can be a precursor for sampling if the results highlight anything interesting. At this time we have no mission update, so I don't know the name of the target, but hopefully the team will let us know soon.
