Just one more frame to go, and the full panoramic will be complete . In case the missing frame doesn't turn up, you can cheat by using a cropped version of this frame: http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/msl/multimedia/ra...754M_&s=168 as it gives the required coverage. Here's a crop of the resulting panorama, although the software I use (Microsoft ICE) hasn't done a very good job. Maybe you can do better. -------------------- Curiosity rover panoramas: http://www.facebook.com/CuriosityRoverPanoramas

Stunning views everyone. Ahhh yes... Mt. Sharp. Here's yet one more in 3D...
With so much time spent scrutinizing ground details, whenever the whole of Mt. Sharp can be integrated into the view, it just reminds one of things to come; getting over to that behemoth and uncovering it's majesty and mystery close up. Taking a step back in perspective, it still astonishes me how remarkable it is that this incredible machine was actually flown to - and landed safely - in this amazing place. -------------------- "We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time." -T.S.

Sol 170 front hazard cams show positioning exercises being done with the drill.
Also, looking at Herkenhoff's USGS blog they seem to have finished most of the activities needed before pressing in for the kill so to speak. There are two favoured targets according to the sol 167 blog post. BTW loving the views James . Awesome. -------------------- |
