The latest pancams show some interesting bumps on the far horizon as well as long 'swells' on the plain that might respond well to 'phil-o-vision'. Time for the 'Distant Vistas' team to resume work? I'm not going to attempt the first identifications as I have little idea what azimuths we're looking at. Also I don't know what visibility to expect with the current dust levels.

Some distant features can be seen again in the latest Opportunity Sol 4686 images
I think that we see a glimpse of Iazu at left and the protruding hills from Miyamoto Crater at right. https://mars.nasa.gov/mer/gallery/all/1/p/4...GTP2387L2M1.JPG Here below are two quick processings : 1) A first process : 2) And, if you look very, very carefully on the picture hereabove we can barely see around the Myamoto hills a ghostly higher feature much farther away from the crater itself. Here is a second processing (as a strip picture showing the horizon only) : But, maybe that our Cartographer-in-Chief, Phil Stooke, has a clearer (and wiser) view |
