QUOTE (sattrackpro @ May 14 2006, 11:02 PM)  James, do you think they will back-fill the many lost segments of recent photos? Of course, it's already been done.  Although for the bit missing in the lower right, the stamp on the tracking site shows it's been completed but for some reason the new version hasn't been propagated to the Exploratorium or JPL sites. We had the same problem at Gibson, I may have to fill that region with the lower res stamp for now.QUOTE (sattrackpro @ May 14 2006, 11:02 PM) And, what do you think is causing the increase in the number of incomplete images? I'm not sure there is an increase, especially if you look back over the whole mission, things were a lot worse back in the early days IIRC. There have always been dropouts like this, don't worry!

Here is the version with the missing data filled in.
 And quite a big download of colour as well over the weekend.  This is just a quick taster, I need to think a lot more about full (L234567) colour generation in the near future. James -------------------- |

It has a certain majesty which appeals to the (temporarily-stranded-on-Earth) Martians that we have subtly become. I live in a suburban sodium gloop at night, when it's not grey and rainy. (Bob Shaw will know what I mean!) Hmmm. I'd go to Mars for the weather alone. Andy |

Spirit is getting even dirtier. See her solar panels cowered by powder:

The extra dusty appearance of the panels is at least partly due to the "up-sun" viewing geometry of the image. The forward-scattering increases the brightness of the dust.
