Cape York - Northern Havens, Sol 2780 - 2947 Options

[Phil Stooke]

It's premature to be taking this analysis too far. We don't know anything about the structural history of this area, and we could easily be looking at rotated slump blocks or draped post-endeavour ejecta deposits, or any number of other things. Careful mapping all along Cape York will be needed to understand its structure.

Beautiful, just beautiful...

Indeed! And the skies are quite a bit clearer than during the last Endeavour pan back at Chester Lake. Can't wait for the final result.

Stu, would you mind posting the frame that includes the Notch/Dagger at full resolution?

Full resolution here...

Very nice!

Here is my take sofar on the Greeley Pan. Just started processing and assembling images today.

Not really, Phil. You've got geologists talking shop and comparing notes about what they have observed on this leg of the traverse. Ideas grow from discussions.

Here is the current progress of the Greeley Pan with only the L2 filter.

That's cool James
Looking forward to seeing the rest like this

Astro0 yours is my favorite so far. It's almost as if I'm looking out the window of a sand-crawler vehicle.

Dan, albeit in a quite indirect way, you are!!!

Marvelous is all that can be said.

[James Sorenson]

Here is what I got sofar . I still have some color touchup to do, but I'll do that in the final version when the rest of the images come down.


Edit: I Lowered the saturation, and I increased the brightness. Let me know if this looks better.

Your stitching of the images is superb but (at least on my monitor) the intensity of the tangerine colouration is a bit overpowering and difficult to believe. Is there a reason for this? I ask because another image expert I much respect also produces what look to me like 'overheated' views. Maybe I'm deluding myself and Mars actually does look like that, but my instinct tells me that the colours should be shifted some way - maybe not all the way - in Stu's direction.

[James Sorenson]

I agree. I was trying to process the images with what I think the color might look like, but I might have went a little to overboard. I'll tone the saturation down, and raise the brightness abit.

Greely views of the Big Eye are down, looking clearer than ever. Here's a long baseline L2 stereo view from sols 2718 and 2839. The baseline is so wide you can just detect some depth difference as you go from the upper to lower part of the far rim inner slope. It's possible to converge your eyes onto the bright dunes towards the bottom, but that's for experts only.
