They are reportedly naming all these routes and features based on 19th century cattle trails. Would love to know the name of the ESE route they are near now...

... and given the post-drive navcam mosaic's heading (162º) it seems they will continue with the current SSE path.

QUOTE (Joffan @ Apr 3 2006, 01:37 AM) The nearly-dead-south path looks most likely to me, with Oppy continuing to shoot the tubes and turn east on rock only when necessary. Yes, I think that is the best way, which is to continue on about the same mini-valley of dunes toward the South and little East (the western most route) until reaching the eteched outcrop before to turn on left side. Otherwise, it seems possible to continue. However, the shown picture does not guarantee the best selection of route and its selection must be based on the daily NAVCAM or PANCAM pictures. Rodolfo |

The attached image is a greatly reduced and horribly JPEGged version of the Opportunity route map I'm working on. I need to add better background images before I can complete it.
It is built up out of 12 separate square maps, each a separate file in the original version. The squares are 500 m across. A square grid at 100 m spacing overlies the whole thing, with its origin at the lander. I will show enlarged versions later when the backgrounds are finished and other things are done with them. Phil

Phil Whoa!, outstanding, Phil. This is the kind of thing I keep waiting for from JPL. I can't even imagine what it will look like when you finish. (SO - Standing Ovation) Edit: O.K. I guess any Texan like CR has priority on the use of "Whoa". So substitute "Holy Toledo!" for my whoa.

Yes, your work there is priceless, thanks so much Phil. As every move, crater, place visited is shown, in order to be complete, and if you think it's worth doing it, you may want to show on the map the zone were the 3 EDL picts have been taken ?
Amazing how the forum's discussions is only a part of the work done "in secret" for the benefit of all. -------------------- |
