Now yes - while it's fair to say we have arrived at the rim of Vic - the rule were that the 'arrival' date would be the sol at which the rover arrives at the point from which the mother-of-all-pans is taken... so we're not there yet. (i.e. We'll probably take photos when we arrive in Valencia on Sat PM - but personally, I wont feel I've arrived till the following morning when I have a look out the window....and you're right Fred - it's that FIRST big MOAP that is the important one )
But that doesn't mean we can't have a new thread Doug |

Horton, that's a great image. It reminds me of this pic that NASA has used at times on NASA-TV and at places on its web site. I always thought "Yeah, right. Like they'll really have a suited Mars astronaut repelling down a cliff." But now that I see these bluffs... |
