The term “soil” is used here to denote any loose unconsolidated materials that can be distinguished from rocks bedrock or strongly cohesive sediments. No implication of the presence or absence of organic materials or living matter is intended.

Velocity calibration was done by using a spectrum of an absorber of metallic iron and hematite that was acquired in transmission geometry simultaneously with surface measurements. The drive error signal (difference between theoretical and actual velocity curves) was measured before and after every integration and was used to correct velocity scale.
Names were assigned to areographic features by the MER team for planning and operations purposes. The names are not formally recognized by the International Astronomical Union.

A martian solar day has a mean period of 24 hours 39 min 35.244 s and is referred to as a sol to distinguish this from a ∼3% shorter solar day on Earth.
