The Gale Crater movie is perhaps the most awesome rendering of planetary image data I've seen. Thank you! It really brought the places Curiosity is exploring to life, which the overhead images don't.
If you ever have the time and inclination, it would be fascinating if the movie could retrace the Rover's journey. -------------------- |

Thanks vjkane, although to be fair there have been awesome animations using the same data over on Youtube since 2010.
I do have a nice 4k animation cooking at the moment but its going to take a while before it is ready. In the meantime here is another take on the HiRISE coverage of Mt Sharp... and the 450 megapixel Gigapan version... Mount Sharp Northwest Flank 2 -------------------- |
