QUOTE (fredk @ Jan 19 2007, 06:37 PM)  From the latest update, Indeed. How cool can it get?! Also two new names: Cabo Anonimo = Cape B2, and Guam = Dock of the bay.  I simply find it amazing that our robotic proxies on another planet, originally designed to be remotely controlled geologists have learned new skills, and are now astronomers as well. Surely it's not just not cosmetic. Having a longer baseline for astronomic observations should add to our knowledge of the orbits, or at least help to better calibrate our instruments.As for Guam, it just doesn't have the same ring as "sitting on the dock of the bay." I think I'll always remember it with our name. -------------------- ...Tom
