According to the NASA TV schedule, there is an MER news conference set for September 1, at 1 pm EDT (5 pm GMT). Take it with a pinch of salt, because these schedules change a lot. Whenever it happens it will be shown on NASA TV.
This is the first press conference since when? I can't remember when we saw the last one... I'm guessing this is when we'll see the "Mother of all Panoramas". Hopefully some news on the science too, and future route plans.

Reminds me of a worrying incident between Cook and Theisinger on the night of Spirits landing

Reports of cannibalism on the MER Teams are very overblown. This kind of thing hardly ever happens anymore on the New MER Teams...

Ustrax you should still show the other image with Steve that show him saying (as I remember roughly): "Nooo, can at last someone stop this guy..." (or something like that)

NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Spirit has reached the summit of Husband Hill, part of the range the rover first observed on the distant horizon from its landing site in January 2004. A news briefing Thursday, Sept. 1 at NASA Headquarters will reveal what Spirit is seeing as well as the current status and what we have learned from both Spirit and its twin, Opportunity. The briefing will begin at 1 p.m. EDT in the NASA Headquarters auditorium, 300 E St. SW, Washington and will be carried live on NASA Television. Briefing participants: * Douglas McCuistion, NASA Mars Exploration Program Director, Science Mission Directorate, Washington * Dr. Steve Squyres, Principal Investigator for Mars Exploration Rovers science payload, Cornell University, Ithaca, N.Y. * Chris Leger, Rover Planner, NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), Pasadena, Calif. * Jacob Matijevic, Mars Exploration Rover Engineering Team Chief, JPL * Ray Arvidson, Deputy Principal Investigator for Mars Exploration Rovers science payload, Washington University, St. Louis, Mo. NASA TV will provide question-and-answer capability from participating agency centers.

Cannibalism, conspiracies, wild wild parties...Everything must be known. That is why I'm releasing my latest book. Doug, let me tell you that I'm available for the more than necessary Q&A. Just check my agenda...
