Yet another panorama from Spirit (L2, L5 & L6 filters).

Unsuccessful rebellions, indeed, generally establish the encroachments on the rights of the people which have produced them. An observation of this truth should render honest republican governors so mild in their punishment of rebellions as not to discourage them too much. It is a medicine necessary for the sound health of government."Thomas Jefferson </div>

swampcat, you 've been missed, don't worry ! We are all small fish in the pond, but you are an imaging fish, and we like this kind of fish ! Thanks to you and rlb2 for sharing your excellent work with us <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> I feel better than James Brown. </div>

Thanks to you and rlb2 for sharing your excellent work with us <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" />" Thanks, Chemist. Of course, I was j/k. I have no illusions about my place in the Uplink Universe. Here's a large panorama from Oppy, Sol 422 (L2, L5 & L7 filters). Anyone know the name of the crater in the foreground? Viking would be my guess.

swampcat you are right, that is indeed a wonderful image of Viking ! At the moment Oppy is past Viking and Voyager heading straight to Erebus. Pedal to the metal <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> I feel better than James Brown. </div>

Thanks, Chemist. Sometimes it's hard to get up-to-date information off the JPL website. Not a complaint...just a statement of fact. The Exploratorium MER Image Index just released a bunch of raw images from Spirit that appear to have been taken on or about Sol 443. Here's the first color image (L3, L5 & L6 filters). <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> ------------------------------------------------------------------- "I hold it that a little rebellion now and then is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical.

It looks that they have acquired a taste for rock portraits at JPL <img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" /> Probably some of these rocks look interesting to JPL scientists and they want to have a closer look <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> I feel better than James Brown. </div>

Swampcat · Apr 9, 2005

"Probably some of these rocks look interesting to JPL scientists and they want to have a closer look..." It'll be interesting to see what happens if they try to use the RAT. From what I've read, they seem to think it's wearing out. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> ------------------------------------------------------------------- "I hold it that a little rebellion now and then is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical.

The next couple of images are a bit of an experiment in that I'm using the L4 filter raw image for green instead of the L5 filter raw image...because the L5 filter raw image was not available.
