Victoria’s Secrets Revealed in Color in Aviation Week: 2 Oct 2006
International UMSF Team publishes 1st Color Pan from Duck Bay Victoria’s Secrets are revealed in tantalizing color as a navcam panorama spread across 2 pages as the Lead news story inside the 2 October 2006 issue of Aviation Week and Space Technology magazine (p. 24). The 4 page article written by aerospace journalist Craig Covault describes the dramatic and nearly three year long expedition by the Opportunity Rover across the martian surface and the complex and dangerous science operations ahead (see http://www.aviationnow.com). An international UMSF team of martian enthusiasts merged and colorized the navcam panorama taken about 8 feet from the rim of Duck Bay on Sol 952 (Sept 28) using raw data available to everyone.

And our eternal thanks to Cornell University Professors Steve Squyres and Jim Bell for “Giving Away the Data” so that “outside analysts” could have some fun while promoting the cause of science for all mankind. Last year, our team published “Spirits Soar” on the cover of the 14 November 2005 issue of Aviation Week and Space Technology magazine, the April 2006 issue of Spaceflight magazine (British Interplanetary Society) and in numerous other publications.
