Perhaps a new topic is in order at the very special occasion of 3000 sols for Oppy. Congratulations to everyone on the team for what's become a truly epic mission. And with a whole new destination ahead of her: Tribulation!
The MER filenames clock has now turned to sol 3000, a bit before the jpl site and SPICE: |

I've a special post up on my "Road to Endeavour" blog now, celebrating Sol 3000 In the interview with Maxwell, he says he'd like a pic of the Milky Way. At first I thought it'd be too faint, but then we did get a shot of the Large Magellanic Cloud:http://roadtoendeavour.wordpress.com/2012/...e-thousand-sols http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/gallery/all...E1P2741L1M1.JPG The LMC is comparable in brightness to the brightest parts of the Milky Way, though of course the Milky Way is much larger, so you'd need many pancam frames. Navcam might be the way to go. |
