To answer Ustrax's querries from the other thread, I think we can now see more of the
The leftmost (Endeavour north rim) and middle (far rim) features look similar. But it looks like we can see more stuff on the right, which is Endeavour south rim and Iazu. The view we had a few sols ago (2133) of Iazu was still partly obscured by dunes, so it makes sense that we can see more now. I can't see Bopolu in the navcams, though it could be there and buried in the jpeg noise... |

Pete - chuck that Pathfinder demo of Viewshed in here as well ( I never got around to using it) - it demonstrates the power of the technique.
What Pete has shown ( for those who haven't figured it out ) is that certainly for the next several KM - we're not going to have a sudden OMFG HOAV moment - it will be a gradual progression as we've seen with Astro0's recent flicking GIF. |
