"you're really doing a service by putting these kinds of images online right now..." I appreciate the kind words. Here is a panorama of the Payson formation from Oppy, Sol 753 that I put together using some newly found stitching software. It's so much easier than doing it by hand <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" />.

<blockquote>In reply to:<hr />I appreciate the kind words.<hr /></blockquote> no problem, i really mean that: seeing these images presented one after another, you cant help but realize .. deep down ... hey this is a real place. its out there, and if you could get there, this is what it would be like NASA does a very dry, and honestly very poor job of making these pictures easily available to the general (read: non-science nerd) public. and im talking about the saturn thread as well simply seeing these pictures one after another like this: it generates more exitement and wow factor than just about anything ive seen come from them. this is the kind of thing that gets people exited and supporting the space program .. simple, but really effective .. they could really get a clue from you guys if they want to get the funding back for europa and more titan missions etc . .
