NASA rover team selects next drilling target on Mars >>

Two prominent aerospace industry organizations are recognizing the contributions of NASA, especially the achievements of the team that landed NASA's Curiosity rover on Mars in August, with coveted awards. >>

This pair of images from the Mars Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI) on NASA's Mars rover Curiosity shows the rock target "Cumberland" before and after Curiosity drilled into it to collect a sample for analysis. >>

NASA's Mars rover Curiosity used its front left Hazard-Avoidance Camera for this image of the rover's arm over the drilling target "Cumberland" during the 275th Martian day, or sol, of the rover's work on Mars (May 15, 2013). >>

This patch of bedrock, called "Cumberland," has been selected as the second target for drilling by NASA's Mars rover Curiosity. >>

Curiosity shows a full 360-degree view of the rover's surroundings at the site where it first drilled into a rock and Mount Sharp on the southern horizon. >>

This stereo view is of an area called 'John Klein' and Mt. Sharp, Curiosity's ultimate destination is on the horizon. >>

Curiosity prepares for a second drilling and a tutorial on the complicated choreography to get the drill sample to her instruments. >>

Curiosity gets new software and new capabilities for the long trek to Mt. Sharp. >>
