"Trailbreaker" (sol 2702) again
    I should probably point out that the green channel in the right image is synthesized, so color changes between the two frames shouldn't be taken as real. |

I'm very impressed by the quality of your synthesized green channel, we can see barely no color changes on the RGB ! -------------------- |

QUOTE (neo56 @ Sep 1 2011, 11:56 AM) I'm very impressed by the quality of your synthesized green channel, we can see barely no color changes on the RGB ! I'm doing it with some custom code. Basically I create a table of how red and blue values map to green in the left image, and use the results in the right image. It works pretty well up to a point, but one can see color changes in small areas where the actual green value in the right image differs from the average expected value. |

New press release: http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/mer/news/mer20110901.html
"This is different from any rock ever seen on Mars," said Steve Squyres, principal investigator for Opportunity at Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y. "It has a composition similar to some volcanic rocks, but there's much more zinc and bromine than we've typically seen. " ==> Steve said: Maybe altered by hydrothermal water, maybe through impact of Endeavour. -------------------- Need more input ...

Interesting process, impressive results. Your color flicker gifs look great. |

Kenneth Chang has an enthusiastic article in the New York Times ("Mars Rover Discovery Elates NASA") ("mission scientists giddily described that rock"), which was for a while prominently displayed on the paper's home page.
