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... |

I've taken the image fredk made and tried to do some feature mapping on a reprojected HRSC image of Bopolu. I think this should be pretty close, the Google Mars 3D matches pretty well with what we see (also included) which gives me some confidence I'm in the right ballpark.
