Yes please! I just came here to say the same thing, nearly six years to the day later.

Just started to research the sources and am working on expanding it with emphasis on the biological experiments. Cheers,

The electrical systems were entirely powered by the LiSO2 batteries. solar cells only there for tests.
apart from the Low-Temperature Heat Pipe Experiment Package (HEPP) (S1001) (see results ref above - p233)
The batteries are variously described as Lithium Sulfide, Lithium sulfate, or LiSO2 - very strange.
One long face (Row 3) was designated 'leading', and the other (Row 9) 'trailing'
[2] - How was this orientation maintained ?
post-retrieval data indicated it yawed about 10° towards row 10
Which experiments benefited from the longer duration, and which suffered ?
One (A0187) with covers that closed after 11 months reopened them later
