Description
English: Curiosity's First Sample Drilling

At the center of this image from NASA's Curiosity rover is the hole in a rock called "John Klein" where the rover conducted its first sample drilling on Mars. The drilling took place on Feb. 8, 2013, or Sol 182, Curiosity's 182nd Martian day of operations. Several preparatory activities with the drill preceded this operation, including a test that produced the shallower hole on the right two days earlier, but the deeper hole resulted from the first use of the drill for rock sample collection.

The image was obtained by Curiosity's Mars Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI) on Sol 182. The sample-collection hole is 0.63 inch (1.6 centimeters) in diameter and 2.5 inches (6.4 centimeters) deep. The "mini drill" test hole near it is the same diameter, with a depth of 0.8 inch (2 centimeters).

W centrum zdjęcia z łazika NASA Curiosity, jest otwór w skale zwanej "John Klein", gdzie łazik przeprowadził pierwsze wiercenie próbki na Marsie. Wiercenie odbyło się 8 lutego 2013, albo w Sol 182, czyli w 182 dniu operacji łazika Curiosity na Marsie. Kilka działań przygotowawczych z wiertarką poprzedziło tę operację, w tym test, który utworzył dwa dni wcześniej płytszy otwór po prawej stronie, a głębszy otwór jest rezultatem pierwszego użycia wiertła do zbierania próbek skał.

Zdjęcie zostało wykonane przez kamerę MAHLI w Sol 182 . Dziura powstała po pobraniu próbki ma 1,6 cm średnicy i 6,4 cm głębokości. "Mini drill", czyli płytsza dziura testu ma taką samą średnicę, o głębokości 2 cm.
