Description

"3/12/2185, 0930 hours. We are approximately 12 km north of the landing site; we have entered one of the smaller chimney fields that is very broken by the channeling seen in the orbital imaging. It's obvious this area has been dormant for several thousand years due to the extreme self erosion of the smoker vents examined so far. The mineral depth here is several kilometers down, but looks entirely accessible. Unlike walker # 2, which is 20 km south, we are finding remnants of the sulphurized atmosphere lying in the low areas. Samples will be small, since we don't want to expose the lower leg supports to such corrosive elements for too long." Vue 6, Studio Max for the Terra Walker, Photoshop.
