What kind of crazy math are you using to get 1006 and 0707 to add up to 1707? I deduced a few taxes without mentioning it. So, I stay with SOL 935 -------------------- |

So, if today March 28 is SOL 774, then Labor Day (Sept 4th) should be:
SOL 934 I'm thinking there will be two relatively short distractions but Oppy will make it to VC by this date to keep the press release date. |

Hmmm... I thought we had all been given the option to re-select, since the long wait at Purgatory II had invalidated our former selection criteria. On that basis, I selected Sol 998.
Y'all please update your lists accordingly... -the other Doug -------------------- “The trouble ain't that there is too many fools, but that the lightning ain't distributed right.” -Mark Twain

I'll pick 958 since all my other carefully calculated and deliberated sols were all taken :-)

Before I make my prediction. Is there a cut off date like Michael Capobianco said about making this prediction and what point at Victoria Crater do we have to reach? Will we have to be at the edge and see the dunes at the bottom?

How about the first sol at which observations are made from whichever site number is used for the 'big pan' that will obviously be taken. It may be a few sols before that, but it would be an un-arguable point of reference.

Did someone calculate approx. what sol Oppy will be when MRO will start HiRise shots ?
Will help to bet which one will shot the first "VC Pan" first... -------------------- |
