The first action • Sojourner spent several days at Yogi, positioning the APXS and performing measurements. After Sol 6 when Sojourner did a "wheelie" on Yogi, it backed away from Yogi readjusting itself by making two turns, one to the left and one to the right, before deploying the Alpha Proton X-Ray Spectrometer (APXS) and making its move up against the rock.
