We are DOWN, ladies and gentlemen...we are down!!!!
This is the place to talk about it. Congratulations to the MSL team!!!!!!!! -------------------- A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.

Given the distortion of the Hazcams and the proximity to the mountain, I guess we're seeing part of that and not the rim.

Front hazcam showed the rover shadow so it was facing east and the mountain should therefore be visible in the front, not rear hazcam.
