Different Types Of Risk

Mark Eby — 1/6/2004 12:52:32 PM (archived)

Gustev was a high risk landing site due to cross winds. It appears to be low risk for traversing based on the initial images. They may not have known it would be so ideal for traverses before hand, but all the sites considered were supposed to be good rover territory. The hematite site was supposed to be the easier to land in, but I'm not sure how easy it will be to traverse compared to Gustev.

Mark
