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) |

Concerning artifacts in the imagery, we all know by now not to make wild assumptions based on raw images.
Still, some rough comparisons can be made IMO if the time-interval is short enough. That's why I referred to comparing some calibrated Oppy-scenery through L2/L5/L7/R1 until we get to see some calibrated data for El Dorado. Here's the L1 pan shot on sol 799. [Radiometrically calibrated L1 images are used to produce estimates of the albedo (bolometric albedo; see page 23 of Bell et al.: Pancam In-Flight Calibration) for those interested in the technical stuff.] ![]() while a 'raw' pan, this should provide a somewhat more realistic perception of the scene since L1 is centered at 739 nm with 338 nm bandpass (~largest wavelength coverage amongst the Pancam filters) Nico -------------------- photographer, space imagery enthusiast, proud father and partner, and geek.
