I concur. It IS groovy! Also it seems to contain some grooves. A stereo version will be particularly interesting.

lengthly september edition of the Planetary.org MER update goes into a lot of detail about driving and energy production challenges... plus a huge 15MB "Sprained Ankle Panorama" (why so-named?).
I've never heard much discussion regarding the current state of Oppy's battery charge capacity after all these years, here we are almost 14 years in now using workarounds to so many ageing issues, yet (mercifully) there seem no worries with the batteries!

here's a sol4843 stitch anaglyph and crosseye of one section of the upslope dusk images

Maybe because of the LF wheel problem up there?

Possibly we are becoming blasé about Opportunity's performance, leaving the astounding achievement of the 45 kilometre mark unremarked. Looks like it is going to be a long slow winter for Opportunity with power generation hovering around 280 Watt hours at this time.

Thanks for reminding us, so Oppy slogs past another kilometerstone with no fanfare, not even in Crumpler's latest post from last friday, i think thats equivalent to traversing about 70% around the entire Endeavor ridge, so i guess we got a while before we hit that one, i am perhaps too complacently confident that will happen! to help celebrate here is a stereo of the latest MI pairs from sol4857.
And thanks fredk, that info about the battery was very illuminating!

This new drive back uphill was discussed in the latest PS update:
QUOTE
One option under consideration is to send the rover back uphill to an area near the first way station where the MER scientists have spotted some interesting bedrock.

“It looks like two different colored, bedrock units in direct proximity,” said Golombek. “One area that we’re imaging shows that one side has rocks of a lighter tone and the other has a browner, darker tone and the two units appear to be separated by what could be a fracture zone or something. It’s all dirt, maybe broken up rock that’s been filled in by sand, or who knows?”
