Here's a Sol 22 image of the new trenching area at the extreme right edge of the work area. I brightened the shadow to show the whole trench.

Greetings
On this picture I can see the first layer which probably is green or denitely have a diferent colour . The same was posible to see in the first digging area but it is my opinion that the first layer is green and is wery thin . In the Meca images was also seen some green sand particles . |

I'm not convinced that's actually green. We'll have to wait for calibrated images, but my guess now would be it's an artifact of the raw images and that it's actually more grayish in color than the rest of the soil.

Mark's SSI team produced a wonderful image of the new trench where they seamlessly removed the lander shadow. If I didn't know where the shadow edge was exactly, the image could have fooled me as being completely in sunlight. There's just a subtle hint of diffuse sky illumination in the shadowed area, reminiscent of soviet Venera surface shots.

Mark's SSI team produced a wonderful image of the new trench where they seamlessly removed the lander shadow. Here's a blog post by Kurt Schwehr describing how it was made. Ah, the magic of Photoshop. |
