I wrote a shell script that allows you to download all images from a given sol.:
http://paranoid.dechengst.nl/files/MSLget.sh There are two rm commands in the script to clean up the tempdir. If you're afraid my script screws up your system replace them with rm -i commands. If you want any features added please let me know and I'll see what I can do. EDIT1: Added leading zeros in the directory names for easy sorting after a request for it on IRC. EDIT2: I see a lot of people downloading the script. To be clear: This is a script for *NIX systems and won't run on a standard Windows box. To get it running under Windows you need to install a *NIX environment like Cygwin. Your other option would be to install something like Ubuntu in VirtualBox. EDIT3: As RoverDriver pointed out you need to have wget on your system to use this script. The script now handles this gracefully. -------------------- PDP, VAX and Alpha fanatic ; HP-Compaq is the Satan! ; Let us pray daily while facing Maynard! ; Life starts at 150 km/h ;

I reported the same to Veronica McGregor a few days ago (who is not in charge, but obviously can talk to whomever is) and she said that they officially do not care about bandwidth since everything is stored in the cloud. Now, that's fine for them but it'd be better for the user if they didn't have to download so much data. But I don't want to hassle them about this detail since it's the least of our problems with accessing data. If I'm going to bug them I want to bug them about things like getting metadata (filter information, pointing information etc) and faster distribution of the raws hopefully by automating things. As of the time I left JPL, as far as anybody knew it was a manual process. Priorities! Other people have been begging Mike Howard to make a version of MMB for Curiosity. Even if he wanted to, he couldn't right now, because they're not posting enough metadata.
