Since Spirit is no longer "Running for the Hills" and it appears that she will be staying at Low Ridge Haven for the next eight months or so, it seems like a good time to start a new topic.
I thought we could start with the great panorama stitched by jvandriel, and then altered by Tesheiner. We are going to become very familiar with this view in the coming months. David [attachment=5107:attachment] (286k) |

Great panorama, Dilo. That pic is one of the best, most evocative I've ever seen. Makes Mars feel like a real "place", not just a point of light in the sky. That something could look so familiar yet be so very far away is something I am having a hard time wrapping my imagination around.

...Thanks to all but especially to Spirit!
(anyway, there is some strange thing on this "lookout hill", recalling me Nazca features... ) -------------------- I always think before posting! - Marco -
