Now that Curiosity has her driving and science software installed and is ready to proceed, I figured it was time for a new thread. Please keep sol 0-8 discussion in the previous thread (including discussion of the full-frame MARDIs, as they come down), and post new stuff here.
Things to look forward to: a Mastcam pan of the top of the mountain to be uplinked in the next sol or two; testing of the steering actuators on sol 13; first drive on sol 15. This period, which Grotzinger told me would take "no fewer than 6 sols," will be followed by an "Intermission," during which the science team may choose to drive to a new site (not very far away) for Commissioning Activity Period 2, when they'll commission the arm and its instruments. Also, an admin note: we allowed a lot of chit-chat in the landing thread because we were all so excited about the successful landing ![]() -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.

Finally found my red-blue glasses to check out some of the nice anaglyphs created by members here. Nice effects. Now I just wish there was a way to search for them by an "anaglyph" tag or some such. Or maybe a gallery page.
Here's a modest effort (just read a tutorial on how to do it in Photoshop) based on a MASTCAM 30/100 pair from sol 13. http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/msl-raw-images/ms...2000D1_DXXX.jpg http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/msl-raw-images/ms...2000D1_DXXX.jpg Nice to see the basic effect in action--now to make it better. -------------------- |

QUOTE (jmknapp) Finally found my red-blue glasses to check out some of the nice anaglyphs created by members here. Nice effects. Now I just wish there was a way to search for them by an "anaglyph" tag or some such. Or maybe a gallery page. Quick follow up to a very old post- You can search for anaglyphs- 1) click "search" in the top dark-grey bar 2) select the forum you wish to search 3) click 'More Options' 4) bottom left, select "show results as posts" 5) click 'Perform the Search' button You'll get a list, with thumbnails of posts which include the term 'anaglyph', makes it easy to scroll through. |
