Phil Stooke, of the University of Western Ontario (now retired), is the author of two terrific reference works for Mars missions: The International Atlas of Mars Exploration: The First Five Decades<\/em>, and The International Atlas of Mars Exploration: From Spirit to Curiosity<\/em>. In the second volume, he thoroughly documents the routes of the rovers on a base map of HiRISE images, marking the sol numbers for each stop and listing every target examined in each location. The second volume ends at the end of Curiosity\u2019s prime mission in mid-2014, but he has continued to post updated maps at unmannedspaceflight.com<\/a> since. Here are his route maps, in order, updated as of 8 October 2020 to sol 2824. The last few maps will probably be replaced soon with better versions.<\/p>\n
