I actually found that pretty interesting. It look's like doug left his mark in there with his rover model laugh.gif . The data at the top with the battery percentage, the tau, and temperature was cool to. I'm wondering though what the last known physical state of IDD is and other hardware such as the PMA position and HGA position. I know that is all located in the PDS, but just checking if anyone knows before digging? Was the IDD stowed or extended? A suggestion, and not necessarily a sugestion for that tool, would be to show with a picture or video the rovers physical state with the JPL high quality rover photorelistic model overlayed on the terrain to show what the rover would look like as a future explorer walking up to it would see.
