Astronomer / cartographer / philosopher are all qualities of a Renaissance man or scientist of old. They were mostly amateurs as they had to hold real jobs to feed themselves--such as teacher or cleric. Or you could do science as a hobby if you were wealthy...


As a renowned Astronomer, Philosopher, ..graphical bard of the celestial globes and widely travelled explorer of this tiny sphere, tell us, does this....'University' you frequent pay you, or do you pay them?

Well... don't tell anybody... I probably would pay them to do my job, but they haven't figured it out, so they keep paying me.

Amateur cartographer? .... hardly! Amateur writer of article headlines, perhaps.

Route update to Sol 1039. A very short backwards move (estimate around 20 cm based on front hazard camera images) from Sol 1037.

Thank YOU Phil for all you do here and elsewhere including the locations, targets and their names, which then "mysteriously" show up in the KMZ. wink.gif

So it seems the backwards move was 33 cm rather than 20. Oh well, I'll get it right on the next update.

Update to sol 1042. The position should be quite good but I am just guessing that the path followed the previous tracks.

Update to Sol 1049. The comings and goings in Marias Pass are now kept in separate paths with individualized colors.
