With Spirit starting to get on the move again (even though it's a very small first step), I think that it's high time we got a new topic going and re-invigorate the Spirit thread.
OK. Spirit's moving again after 6 months at Low Ridge. Here's an animation of the turn (enhanced Front Haz Cam). A big cheer for our little girl at Gusev. Let's support her with lots of discussion on UMSF. Astro0 |

Here is an old flicker gif of the rough terrain.
It think that it brings out the fact that it is either depressed or surrounded by a rim. There definitely appears to be a rim or ridge separating the area from the basin. I hope Spirit is not blocked by that feature. Note I am not geologist, and am just using terms that I am familiar with. File size 500 Kb |
