Curiosity Sol-By-Sol Timeline
This list is intended to provide a high-level guide to Curiosity's activities on Mars. It will likely be updated relatively frequently at the start of the mission and more rarely as time goes on. It was last updated on January 11, 2013.
All times are UTC. Links from sol numbers go to raw image page for that sol. [R] indicates restricted sols, sols that must be planned before the previous sols' imaging has been returned. These happen every other sol for two-week periods when Mars and Earth time are somewhat coincident. Driving and most arm motions cannot happen on restricted sols.
