Time for a new topic in line with Curiosity's new location.

I refreshed my workflow for these simulated clips of Curiosity driving around HiRISE models mapped to mosaics...click thru for a video of Curi climbing Vera on Sol 1732.
I'll take a look at the speed & suspension on the next one. -------------------- |

I refreshed my workflow for these simulated clips of Curiosity driving around HiRISE models mapped to mosaics...click thru for a video of Curi climbing Vera on Sol 1732. Interesting to see this Sean. Is Curiosity in your video climbing at a point SW of Northern Neck? I wonder what the slope is there (and traversing later beyond the field of view). My guess would be that a gentler climb is possible in the relative trough just to the east of Northern Neck, though still west of the notional route mentioned recently by Fernando. This would be after circling around the east side of the drifts. I suppose one could look at a slope map and figure out what path across the ridge has the lowest value of maximum up/down slope. This is what I had roughly done earlier by eye with your 3D interactive view. -------------------- Steve [ my home page and planetary maps page ]
