Presumably we will see a HIRISE image of the Pathfinder site at some point, so I am posting a polar view of the site here for comparison. I started with the Presidential Panorama. There was a slight mis-match between the ends of the pan - as if it had been slightly cropped for posting - which I can't fix, but it doesn't do too much damage to the polar view.
Phil (PS - no, I can't really spare the time for this but you know how it is) -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

jpg on the left, jp2 on the right.
That's what I thought at first, but they are very different and it looks for all the world like the jp2 is taken from directly above and the jpg from somewhat side on, making the two ramps not appear antiparallel. I'm gonna take some convincing that those aren't two separate images from different angles! ![]() One question: When can we expect colour? ![]() James -------------------- |

We received only a few channels, and none of them was with the lander included. As for color, well, that will come with the next image to finish the stereo, which AFAIK, hasn't yet been assigned. The lander was in RED6, which you're probably aware just missed the color strip. |

We received only a few channels, and none of them was with the lander included. Yeah after my last post I went and made an anaglyph of the whole region with both jpg/tif and jp2 coverage and couldn't really convince myself that there was any stereo, so fair enough it's the same image. I did have to do quite a bit of streching to get the images to overlay so clearly one had been projected differently. I'm still really surprised at how different the lander looks in each image though. ![]() As for color, well, that will come with the next image to finish the stereo, which AFAIK, hasn't yet been assigned.
