I've wanted one or other rover to use the IDD turret and wrist actuation to get the best self portrait possible. A really REALLY bad simulation using the model that is in MMB, and a 33 deg FOV.

Now I'm wondering if we could see down the left side of the WEB. That's for tomorrow night. In many respects, the self portrait seq I fudged is basically half-way-to-magnet-MI - then wrist-and-turret-o-rama
