Fantastic! - Ant, James and others.
Here's another version on this panorama theme. Enjoy Astro0 The full-res version is about 86mb and I simply don't have anywhere to put it to make it available online. Besides, I'm only using dial-up at home. "Mmmmm, must get broadband" (I hope my wife is reading this over my shoulder) |

Disappointing news from the latest Planetary Society update:
QUOTE At a meeting held 8 a.m., November 1, the team made its decision. Spirit will head north across Home Plate, drive a little way down the north facing edge, and winter there. "It was a pretty simple decision when it came down to it," said Squyres. If we head to Home Plate North, we wind up being about 10 drive sols farther from our goal, von Braun. We also wind up being on a steeper northward slope that buys us an additional 10 watt-hours. So it's a simple, straightforward trade of 10 watt-hours for 10 drive sols. This means no von Braun/Goddard until next martian summer. Those tasty slopes will have to wait...

Yeah, that's the top row of the "West Valley View" pan taken on sols 1366 to 1369. I'm still waiting for the L2 and L5 to come down for the colour version, but here is the full pan in L7 (at half resolution and quite heavily compressed)

James, that full pan looks great. I'm impressed with the quality of the image for being so heavily compressed.
