RELEASE DATE: For release on Sol87 (Apr-01-04) IMAGE FILE NAME: mazatzal_mtes_fig SOURCE FILE NAME: NA SUMMARY INFORMATION: Mini-TES emissivity spectra acquired on Sol 86 of Spirit's mission to Gusev at approximately 13:30 Mars local solar time. NAME OF SUBMITTER: Dr. Steve Ruff INSTITUTION: Arizona State University THEME/TEAM/GROUP: Mini-TES SOL OF OBSERVATION: 86 EARTH DATE OBSERVATION: 03/31/04 TITLE OF IMAGE: Mini-TES results for brushing activity on the rock Mazatzal. CAPTION: Mini-TES spectral measurements of the pre- and post-brushed surfaces of the rock Mazatzal show significant differences. The brushed surface of Mazatzal also is signficantly different spectrally from that of the rock Humphrey. These results suggest that the rocks at the Gusev site have coatings that differ mineralogically. EMAIL ADDRESS: steve.ruff@asu.edu PHONE NUMBER: 480-748-9667
