Those are very good news!
 FWIW, the last shot of that mosaic was 40 days ago during sol 1559. 01553::p2271::09::13::0::0::13::2::28::pancam_bonestell_col14_pt1_L234567Rall 01559::p2272::09::13::0::0::13::2::28::pancam_bonestell_col16_pt1_L234567Rall 01599::p2273::09::13::0::0::13::2::28::pancam_bonestell_col16_pt3_L234567Rall |

Methinks the recent posts belong in a new thread, as we start to look forward to Spirit's spring activities. It's a long time since we slid into Home Plate North. Moderator??

John's right - we're now post-equinox, science is, slowly, back on the agenda...time for a new Martian Spring, and a new thread

It's just really low priority. Sunfinding Pancam images or autonav Navcam frames don't really matter - but if the bandwidth is there, then why not.

New versions of the Bonestell pan at the halfway point at the Martian Chronicles blog.

For anyone who doesn't want to download the 21mb version on the blog, here's a scaled down version.
A little bit of sky adjustment and brightening to show more detail.
This is only halfway through the pan, so the entire image will be incredible when finished. Enjoy Astro0 |

From the caption to that hirise image:
QUOTE Another purpose of this image is to aid in selecting a traverse in the coming field season. Spirit will leave Home Plate, drive west and south around the north edge, south along the bottom of the valley between Home Plate and the long ridge to the west informally named Tsiolkovski, and then southward towards the butte and crater farther south. I don't recall hearing the drive plan officially before (though we could guess their motives based on the imaging they did of the valley to the west), so this looks like trying to drive back onto HP where the slope is drivable is not planned. I was hoping for a re-traverse of HP since we know the driving is good. I hope we don't get bogged in the west valley... |

The layering at the Northwest 'corner' where Spirit first arrived at Home Plate has been the most impressive IMO. It looks like the layering along the West side may offer more of the same, making it a very scenic drive down the valley.

With the worst of winter over and power levels hopefully on the rise, does anyone have any idea when they will switch to a 3-day communication schedule or even a 2-day?
ETA: Along those same lines, does anyone want to venture an educated guess as to when they will be able to reactivate the survival heaters? |
