Why is it assumed that this is the southern sky? Spirit can see very far into the northern sky, as well. 56 deg N would still be at about 42 deg elevation. In fact, I think that the camera platform cannot look up very far. I'll look it up, if nobody knows that off the top of their head.
I just want to point out that it could be the northern sky... ed |
