Let's use this topic for the last stops (Cabo Frio, perhaps?) before Opportunity leave the vicinity of Victoria for good.

New maps at JPL, including some new placenames on Victoria's rim: http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/traverse_maps.html Phil Hi Phil: Now that we're under way again, and I've got a groovy new tool, I've gone back and corrected all the locations back to the lander. Based on the quality of the overhead projected Navcam pans (at a resolution of 1cm/pixel) and the resolution of the HiRISE mosaic I'm using (25cm/pixel), I can just about "guarantee" the locations are accurate to about a half meter. Next step will be registering the HiRISE mosaic to the Mars control net. -Tim. PS: For your perusal |
