With Spirit producing an annoyingly large amount of power given her current predicament, the time may well have come to re-open the Gusev astronomy society. Anyone have any dusk / nightime observation ideas?

The star is Canopus, which is not quite circumpolar from Gusev. It looks wide in the images only because of the extreme contrast stretch. Earth is to the lower right from Venus (about 2 deg) in the twilight animation--but it is so low contrast I'm not sure if it can be seen in the jpegs. It should become clearer over time.
