Onwards & Upwards for Perseverance rover.
Judging by the wheel tracks in this roughly processed post-drive tiled-NavCam from Sol 1342, the drive direction to site 62.2066 appears to be close to west-southwest. The updated map and drive data (JSON) are unlikely to be released until after the holiday weekend, so I'll share the drive data and map as soon as they are available.

After several months of climbing up the steep slopes of the Jezero crater rim, Perseverance has reached the top!
The afternoon sun provides a spectacular view on landscape which the rover will explore soon!

A high-ranking NASA official warned his employees to “use discretion” in public when displaying badges or emblems that identify them as federal workers — part of an effort, the agency says, to protect its staff amid “stories of possible harassment.”
This proposal essentially ends U.S. leadership and dominance in space research and space-based astronomy.
"NASA’s science budget could be cut nearly in half under an early version of President Donald Trump’s budget proposal to Congress, a move that would terminate billions of dollars’ worth of ongoing and future missions."

In these dark times I figured it was worthwhile to write something a little more light and hopeful. I love corny earnestness in #Christianity and so I wanted to share with you all a bit about my favorite examples of Retrofuturism enshrined in the liturgy of the Episcopal Church
