Spirits View Of The Sun Options

[Guest_Sunspot_*]

I tried posting this as an animated GIF but it didn't work so im adding it as an attachment. Its shows Spirits view of the Sun on Sol 2, sol 124 and Sol 239 and how it's changed in size during that time.

Now THAT - is cool

Reminds me of the anim gif of the moons orbit where it wobbles too and from the viewpoint

Hopefully - we'll be seing images long enough to see it get bigger again

Whoa!

that's a pretty impressive change...
Kudos, I would've never thought about that, me thinking the size-change would be all but imperceptable... boy, boy, boy...

Thanks for the compliments. I just noticed Mars reached aphelion, its most distant point in it's orbit from the Sun on August 8th 2004, so it already IS getting bigger. I should have used an image from that date.

I didn't expect that much size difference either, nice pictures.
