Looks like about a 3m drive due south - followed by a T.I.P. Brave stuff to go straight over Adirondack - I like their style Doug |

Cool, Nice to see Spirit rolling again.
I doubted they had enough clearance. But I often get confused about the size of objects because of the narrow field of view of pancam and the wide field of view of the hazcams. Here is some of the data I've been using to determine the size and distance of objects. Resolution All (9) cameras have a resolution of 1024 x 1024 Field of view Pancam = 16.8 degrees Navcam = 45 degrees Hazcam = 127 degrees Angular Resolution Pancam = 0.0164 degrees/pixel = 0.286 mrad/pixel Navcam = 0.0439 degrees/pixel = 0.767 mrad/pixel Hazcam = 0.124 degreed/pixel = 2.16 mrad/pixel Geometry Pancams - 28 cm apart, 1 degree toe-in Navcams - 20 cm apart Hazcams - 10 cm apart Microscopic Imager Because this camera has a very small focal plane, it's easy to measure sizes. If the object is in focus, it is 30.3 microns/pixel. The entire image is 31 x 31 mm. Hope this saves people from having to search for all the information themselves. |

Might be usefull to make a set of graphs - that show, for a particular camera, the size of a 1cm, 10cm, 50cm, 1m and 5m objects as a function of distance
