Well, with the Spirit Rover doing it's detailed analysis at Low Ridge and slowly building it's McMurdo panorama, what better time to stroll down memory lane and open up the old photo album. So have a look at my favourite top 20 photos returned by the rover and enjoy!
I'm also working on a Best Of Opportunity page, with the idea of making the photo pages a tribute to not only the MER imaging team, but also to the many Mars imaging enthusiasts who have shared their talented, hard work with us. The link is on my home page. -------------------- |

Shaka,
Back on the topic (!). After I witnessed Spirit landing in Pasadena, I moved strait to Kauaii (for business ). A few days after I get there, the first colored picture was published so, I rushed to to my collegue proud to show them an unknown territory. You know what? They all shout : "but, it's Waimea canyon"..."it's next door". This very picture was not one of the 20 bests, but well, it reminded me to think to watch things from as many way as possible. By the way, where is the blue one between the red one and the yellow one. Mauaii ? -------------------- |

Shaka,: "but, it's Waimea canyon"..."it's next door". This very picture was not one of the 20 bests, but well, it reminded me to think to watch things from as many way as possible. Yeah, Climb (mind if I call ya "Climb"?) - the reds are a good match, as are the gray basalt outcrops. I prefer the temperature range of Waimea though. QUOTE By the way, where is the blue one between the red one and the yellow one. Mauaii ? You're standing up too close. Step back to about the orbit of Jupiter. (You never know who's listening in to the internet.) -------------------- My Grandpa goes to Mars every day and all I get are these lousy T-shirts!
