On the rust-colored plains of Mars, a rover more than a decade into its journey found its footing again — freeing a stuck arm, choosing a sturdier target, and resuming the slow, careful work of reading the planet's ancient chemistry. Yet even as Curiosity prepared to drill into a sulfate-rich block named Campo Marte, it paused to lend its eyes to a passing spacecraft bound for the asteroid belt, a quiet reminder that exploration is rarely a solitary endeavor.
