Opportunity looks also at the Sun.
Here is a small animation taken on Sol 2449 with the L8 Pancam. What do we see?. Jan van Driel |

What do we see?. It's too early for that to be Santa Claus... I can't think what would be as bright as the Sun. If it was something between Oppy and the Sun, it would have its dark side facing Oppy. If it was on the far side of the Sun, it would be fully illuminated but nothing should be as bright as the Sun. Maybe a bad spot on the CCD? It doesn't move the full height of the frame. -------------------- Jonathan Ward
