Mast sensors still broken

No progress - other projects had priority.

Buttons still work after seven weeks week of runtime. GPS display update seems to be intermittent as it is not working at this moment. But the date is correct.

EDL video frames extracted and converted to TIF. Some thirty some-odd frames (every 100 frames at 30 frames per second) roughly georectified to TRN base map using GRASS. May investigate using image correlation to finalize rectification. Realized that there was probably some significant video postprocessing of the downlook video to make the final JPL video, so recovery of the original downlook camera matrix for camera pose determination may not be possible. Have to think about this some more.

Forgot to mention the "Looks Interesting" analysis, which uses data from Directory of Open Access Journals (https://doaj.org), and catalog metadata from the Library of Congress to construct an index of academic journal references that may be "interesting to look at". One of the interesting things was Acta Futura:

which indeed "Looks Interesting".

There's also a lot of other places with what appears to be "write only" journaling, too.
