Any chance you point out where's Oppy or where she'll enter the scene? Thanks

You mean Curi, surely?
In the most recent Gigapan you can see Murray Buttes at the bottom center right of the image, tracing the route up toward the natural break in the dune field to the left of Ireson hill you can almost discern a path leading up to Hematite Ridge. In time I will make a version with the notional route. Any chance you point out where's Oppy or where she'll enter the scene? Thanks In the first Gigapan rendering, Hematite Ridge, Curi's current position near Ireson Hill is just above the center stage right. I've had some luck studying these with the route maps and another site where you can zoom into HIRISE (though it is offset a bit): http://curiosityrover.com/rovermap1.html
I can surmise for Curiosity that it will enter soon at the right edge of Sean's neat Hematite Ridge rendering, about 40-45% of the way between top and bottom. -------------------- |
