http://www.unmannedspaceflight.com/doug_images/elev_1.jpg http://www.unmannedspaceflight.com/doug_images/elev_2.jpg Doug Can anyone identify Spirit's Sol 549 location on these (magnificent) elevation maps posted by Doug? I am having a difficult time estimating distance to summit based on 549 pictures. The summit seems very, very close (10 - 15 meters?), but the distances also seem very deceptive. |
