This raw image shows SHERLOC's cover (bottom center) stuck partially open, or partially closed, whichever (hopefully closed). This image was from sol 1041. I see more raw images tonight that still show SHERLOC taking vague and foggy images, the same as the ones posted before and after this raw image. I'm assuming this is still an issue. What's the level of concern? What options do they have?

Great News!!! Thanks Paul!!!
She's stout , and she has the worlds best Engineers, Scientists, and Support Staff. Still, fingers crossed, and hope for the best.
What about flight 71? Any updates?
Thanks Paul. I always appreciate your in-depth explanations.
Where's Flight 68? I still only see two raw image files from it.
What's up with the CacheCam images from sol 913? It appears to be a sealed sample?
So they're going for another Three Forks style sample drop when they reach the rim? What are the pros and cons of that?
Basically they take a geological region from somewhere here on earth, such as Colorado or The Rocky Mountains, and take names from those regions.
Look at that mineral vein. Maybe they'll core that?
They sure are giving this abrasion a very thorough look. What are they seeing in it? IANAGOAA (I am neither a geologist or an astrobiologist)
I love Imgur and think its a great sight for images. So this is a great work around! Thank you for taking the time to do all this.
After all this time I still love these data sheets.
