The latest Planetary Society update is up.

One interesting comment from Arvidson:
QUOTE
"We can see multiple types of rocks in the wall and we're all anxious to get southeast so we can figure out what we're seeing in the CRISM data.”


And some classic inspiration from Squyres:
QUOTE
“The most important thing between Santa Maria and Endeavour that we know about is – getting to Endeavour," said Squyres. "We're going to put the pedal down and go like hell."

"I'm making no predictions," Squyres said. "But," he added, "we are 6.5 kilometers away with a rover that drove more than 7.5 kilometers this past year. You do the math.”

No offense Nick but your channel separation was way off. I adjusted it for a bit more viewing ease.

None taken! Thanks for the heads up. (I suspect it comes from balancing a laptop on my knee rather than my usual desktop setup.)

From jvandriel's post 306 we can see Oppy is close to the little crater at 6 O'Clock (4.7 km East).

From that web site there are two links, one for the main picture and then another link labeled 'here' to the supposed 18 degree oblique view.
I figured I could rotate the oblique view 90 deg ccw and make a stereo pair with the main image (text aside) and see if oppy would be able to pop-out in 3D.
However when I did this I got 0 stereo relief. It appears if these are actually the same image, but one is just rotated 90 degrees and has slightly different brightness.
Did Mathew Golombek point to the wrong picture (for one of them), is 18 degrees off nadir not enough to resolve stereo, or what??
The links to the two supposed different view images are
http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/releases/ima...maria-large.jpg
and
http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/releases/ima...ria-oblique.jpg
Even the jpeg artifacts seem to imply these are actually the same image source...

If these *were* a nadir and off-nadir point (where could they be found?), would we be able to resolve oppy as having height in 3D stereo view? (presumably Santa Maria at least would resolve depth...)

They are - but no, you wouldn't get stereo with the rover - it's too small.

I was looking for the larger swath of the area from this observation that might show the scars relating to the recent wind activity...

I noticed that too - they're definitely the same image. Somebody got their wires crossed.
