Do we know what Image data Curiosity will be attempting to upload on the next flyover pass? More hazcams only, or do weexpect to have the mast up and taking pics and ready to send? in 1 or 2 days? -------------------- photographer, space imagery enthusiast, proud father and partner, and geek.

There is a low bandwidth ODY pass that will happen in about 10 minutes that may have a couple new HazCams. Does anyone know when the first MARDI images are expected to be downlinked? I saw that 18 had been assigned a (relatively) high priority, but the JPL Ustream was just saying that the current pass would have only a HazCam or two.

Nice work, Joe! The heat shield appears remarkably stable, even in 1 % of Earth's atmosphere - I expected at least some tumbling. Next time JPL/NASA do this, perhaps they could put a camera on the inside of the heat shield & transmit images to the rover - that would make for great viewing of the underside of the lander descending under 'chute.
