"...on January 1, 2020. If we are still going after that,we'll need to do another software patch." This will be Sol 5679 for Spirit Or about 50 Km odometry for Opportunity (extrapolating first 5 years average)! -------------------- I always think before posting! - Marco -

Time for a general update!
EDIT: someone highlighted wrong axis in the first plot, now I corrected title and added second axis for daily odometry. -------------------- I always think before posting! - Marco -

June 24th 2009 doesn't seams to be a special day for Spirit. It is indeed.
It'll be Sol 1946...which will also be (Earth) Day 2000 since landing. -------------------- |

It almost looks like some cosmic joker's sending us a message via Spirit's power curve

I'm still waiting for someone on UMSF to put together a graph in anaglyph form. I'm surprised we don't see more of that sort of thing.

Other milestones,
Last Oppy drive put the total odometer for both MER above 25 kilometers. (24969 + (~) 70m Also, On 09/09/09 (or so ), total number of pictures reached 250.000. This is ~62 pictures per sol and per Rover or 3600$ per picture... if all costs have ever to be considered for taking pictures only. Last 25.000 pictures have been shot in 251 sols. -------------------- |

That's a surprize. That only leaves about 10 000 images not of the sun or sundial! And a lot of those must be navcam odometry frames - I wonder how many?
