Hope no one minds, but I felt we have to have a new topic, right from the start, as a compendium of all the Factual Observations on this incredible structure...this Mother Ship from another world...this...(who said Burgess Shale? I laughed at that at the time. ) Who will start us off with a detailed description of what we see before us TODAY February 5, 2006 - Super Sunday.

Are there estimates on how high is HP above the surrounding terrain? 15 - 20 ft , 5-7 m?
and info on when they may plan a drive around to check for a safe path to climb up? |

If you consider that Spirit NavCam is able to see the plateau surface while standing at only 1/3 of the total wall height, elevation should be slightly above 2 meters in the rightmost (North-West) side and, perhaps, less than 1m in the East side... look also to the simulated Doug's view, few posts above... -------------------- I always think before posting! - Marco -
