Walfy, thx for those pictures, it is a very good idea, previously used to show the scale of the various craters we have visited.
And as to the new heading.... "Go East, old woman!" - Mars IS different |

All posts dealing with the possible problem that showed up with the PMA actuator on sol 2257 have been split to a new topic. Let's keep this one for the driving!

Navs from 2255 - bit hard to get even brightness/decent colour etc. But good to have a bit of spare time, have fun on my new Dell M6500 laptop + try out Corel5 Photopaint + start posting again ! Might get round to posting full size image on Flikr.
See reposted pic as just below................ |

Nice, but I think that 'new' mountain on the left is an art-effect. Looking at the raw you used I can just about see where it came from. Here's the view from the other camera though, and there's no sign of it:

2270 looks like a driving sol.

Yup, and including an east pointing navcam mosaic at end-of-drive.

Tosol's drive has already finished and there's already some data at the tracking web telling that 70m were covered in an almost due east heading.
Besides, the pointing info associated to the "post-drive" navcam mosaic tells the PMA is behaving well. All good space news today. |

I'm a bit surprised at how ripple-y it still looks, believe it or not. (Sorry)

The maps shows it's just a short section of low dunes, then we're on linked pavements....

New pics are finally at the jpl site. It's nice having Endeavour in our drive-direction sights:
