I too am a bit disappointed with the slow image releases, but because there is so much to take in with each new image, not to mention that the mission was almost cancelled -- twice, I'm happy that there is anything to see at all. After staring at the Hubble images for the past several years, I'm thrilled to see the smorgasbord of features and detail on this newly revealed, yet strangely familiar world.
(BTW, I'm not so sure I'll be the same if there is a similar policy with MSL. Having traveled to the American southwest 11 times in the last 20 years, I will probably have minor conniption fits if I have to stick to my imagination at Gale. For some of us travelers and hikers, its all about rolls and rolls of film -- and memory cards -- with thousands of photos....) |
