She'll always be in 3rd place too in the ratings. CBS also had a guy on that had lost a child at the Columbine shooting, and before you knew it he was spouting off about how Abortion was bad, sheesh !.

Remember even the tilt paramter of say 30 degrees will stop the rover dead in its tracks. Cabo Verde is not a 90 degree drop off by any means, infact I don't think any of the cliffs are, they all seem to have a slope then a drop. They also have several other s/w parameters to stop a rover driving over a cliff.

Endurance made up for that though, and now we have Victoria and maybe later some part of Big Crater and its rim.

We would want Oppy to have that done to her of course, but I think that only happens during the Martian summer, and we are in winter at the moment.

Member No.: 11	I wonder if they will change thier minds and drive to the Beacon to do the panorama, seems a better spot to me being the highest point, and it also sticks out into the crater more than Verde.

Member No.: 11	QUOTE (helvick @ Sep 28 2006, 02:53 PM) I think if you look around the crater you will see that the cliffs do't extend down 50% of the way into the crater, certainly the far bluffs look closer to 12m than 30m. Time to load up Agorimancer's parallax calculator. The near cliffs are higher, 30.5 m
