I just make a rectangular selection around the bright central area, feather it about 100 pixels, select inverse (area outside original selection) and brighten until I'm satisfied.

From Scott Maxwell's Twitter: "Thisol's drive should leave us ~ 20m from the edge of Santa Maria. Woo-hoo! "

That's interesting, Phil. But given the axially symmetric optics, would it perhaps be better to make a circular selection centred at the centre of the frame?

Can somebody tell me approximately how far Oppy was from Santa Maria at the time of the sol 2447 pan?

200 m

Is the clock/time on the MER website still accurate?

I think we are somewhere around HERE ↓↓↓↓↓



This is my first time to do route map so please don't laugh.

And from Scott's tweet, 2450 should be 20 m from edge.

Hey Scott, STOP!!!

You're right Dan, they don't even have time to send any pictures.

By the time I've feathered the selection that much, it wouldn't matter if I started with a triangle! Actually, you're right, I do use a circle sometimes. And sometimes I just select the two edges as vertical rectangles. Rampant ad-hoccery is my guiding principle. Hey - that's a good line for my new sig!

From Scott: Current position with respect to Santa Maria: "About 90m. So close we can taste it. Planning ~ 70m thisol; probably will do fine approach nextersol."

20 meters? Wow that's past those two large boulders. Here's what 20 meters from the edge roughly consists of.

Any Pictures yet from 20 meters away??? Waiting

Those look like pretty reasonable locations to me.

Bobby: we're currently 90 metres away. Pictures still due. Next drive planned to get us to 20 m.
