Phoenix - in TallovisioN - WAY more horizon relief than I was expecting.

QUOTE (djellison @ May 28 2008, 11:27 AM)  Keeping with the practice of sol-by-sol discussions, here it is. This isn't really the easiest way to turn the board's posts into a reference of useful commentary on the mission. Next week when someone's wondering what was said or done re: a particular image, who's going to remember which sol it was? |

Open to suggestions on how to manage it especially better. There are 100,000,000 ways you could organise it. Splitting the enormous traffic spike of the first few sols into sep. threads was one. Note that this thread is 'Sol 3 and onwards'. Discussions are essentially chaotic - attempts to cultivate them in an organised fashion at anything other than a very very low level will always be a waste of time imho. |

For those of you who only use inches as units for measuring the diagonal diameter of television screens, Mark provided me with a version of the rock-dimensions graphic with units in centimeters:

That's instructive, but left me with a horrible concept - mission funding via product placement in images! |

Is there a site that has past Phoenix mission briefings?

Since the temperature cycles a bit above and below -40, °F or °C doesn't matter
