If there already was a discussion about, then I would gladly ask: where is it? Otherwise does someone know something about the object size in the pics, getting from Pancam and Navcam, in comparison with "seen by human eyes"? For example, probably the object sizes getting from Navcam are smaller as we would see it with our own eyes at the same position, but how much approximately? And how about Pancam?

Primarily I would like to know the "real" size of sun by the sunset seen from Spirit on sol 489 (Pancam): http://www.unmannedspaceflight.com/index.p...indpost&p=10917
