5 downsampled navcam frames from sol 2078 are down. Someone might want to make an animation. wink.gif

That's a fascinating anaglyph Fred - you can almost convince yourself you can see the crater as a depression, can't you?

I guess it could have been a lot worse; if Spirit had driven further in, and not just sank in on one side, I think the game would already be over.
