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... |

There are just great. Any chance you could extend the area S and SW to check out the potential visibility of Bopulu and 'south hill' from a little south of our present position?

If we were really greedy we would ask them to animate the sequence down the drive path so we'd see green features growing and shrinking in the view from above with an in-set image showing a red dot moving down the drive path. But that would take a lot of time and all we have to offer is boundless admiration and praise. -------------------- If Occam had heard my theory, things would be very different now.
