A little discrepancy in names... can anyone throw any light on this situation?
Due west of our current position there is a distinctive crater at the foot of the wall of Gale crater. It seems to have been given two names: Slangpos: https://www.hou.usra.edu/meetings/lpsc2017/pdf/2995.pdf Slagnos: https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/spaceimages/details.php?id=PIA22208 Slangpos looks like the correct name to me (matching the Namibian naming scheme used during the period when the ChemCam RMI mosaic was made, see link). So is Slagnos a mistake, or a separate name? Please let me know if you have any insight into this. Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

Fred Calef says it’s “Slangpos” crater.

A little discrepancy in names... https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/spaceimages/details.php?id=PIA22208 A very nice location map (despite the Slangpos error) which I had not seen until you posted it, thanks. One thing: for me the nested link to the 22210 panorama does not work, so for anyone like myself following here and wishing to compare the two here's one that should - https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j...4pSt51gGJFAjI4n |

Nice animation
Another drive during Sol 1989. No drive data yet but they performed a series of wheel checks at the onset of the drive, then drove for around 1 hour. I've roughly assembled the available L-NavCams in MS ICE. Edit: Looks like the rover did a turn in place after this small set was acquired. |

Sadly I couldn't get enough bits in the plan to finish that upper tier - I only had two frames to spend, and needed three

A postcard from Mars, sol 1981. I love how the late afternoon light enhances the relief of the hills...

Numerous small light-toned structures (crystals?) in this sol 1991 pre-drive target? I think it could be called 'Seaforth Head' as it was the only MALI target mission update
