Finally drove away from Pahrump Hills on sol 923. Wheel tracks sure are piling up at the end of the drive -- there seems to have been quite a bit of slip.
[admin note: I was going to start a new thread for this, but realized our thread naming may be a bit out of whack because we're really not journeying to Mt Sharp anymore, are we? We'll discuss it with admins and I'll move/rename posts when we figure out our naming schema.] -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.

craigmcg, thank you for uploading that photo. Has helped me put it into a Terran context. Have similar geological processes produced what we're seeing at Garden City?
PaulH51, 'A Puzzle For The Geologists' wow pretty impressive mosaic, how long did it take you to do? Were the images literally taken from the raw images page on NASA's site here http://marsmobile.jpl.nasa.gov/msl/multime...?s=#/?slide=946 , and then stitched together by yourself? Loved it anyway! -------------------- "After the Apollo missions, we should have pushed on towards Mars and put boots on its surface by the early Eighties."

PaulH51, 'A Puzzle For The Geologists' .... how long did it take you to do? Were the images literally taken from the raw images page and then stitched together.. Yes, less than a minute to stitch the raw images using "Microsoft Image Composite Editor" (ICE) MS ICE home page I use an older version V1.4.4.0 which I prefer to V2.0. There are many better tools, but this one works for me. PhotoScape then used to add the annotations etc. There is a thread for "MSL Images & Cameras, technical discussions of images, image processing and cameras" Kindly use that thread if you have any other queries re MS ICE, plus there is a host of great material there worth studying |
