With Spirit producing an annoyingly large amount of power given her current predicament, the time may well have come to re-open the Gusev astronomy society. Anyone have any dusk / nightime observation ideas?

Some pancams show a bright star (moon?) and a fainter one, see the trails in, eg, this frame:
