MSNBC ran an article today about Opportunity's latest findings, and not only credits all the pics to Stu, it refers to him as "Stuart Atkinson, a British educator, author and amateur astronomer who has been working up wonderful imagery from the rover missions for years."

Congratulations, Stu!

MSNBC got it mostly right; they described Stu as a "British educator, author and amateur astronomer".

But they should have added "poet" Stu's images are always fantastic. But there are others on this forum who can match his image wizardry. But being able to put in words what most of us feel about these missions, is something that Stu alone has mastered.
