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!"

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 smile.gif ! 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. wink.gif 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:

Oh no! I thought that I had discovered a new mountain and was going to ask it be named Mount Alice after my home town!!!! I have digitally blasted it off the face of Mars and reposted a v2 without artifact ph34r.gif

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. smile.gif

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

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