After a drive on sol 619, Spirit has finally reached the true summit of Husband Hill, almost touching the summit rock.

Tman - it takes about 1 hour for one complete row; 27 frames.
2 to 3 hours isn't bad I would say.. I can run a ~110 frame mosaic during the night with 2Gb(3Ghz)pc. She struggles with a fourth and fifth row for some mosaics since the dimensions of the file in Ptgui gets too big for even a few more frames at the bottom..  My hard drive is not super-fast thoug it would definetely help if it was as Doug said. Here's the 360 'raw image' 1/2 resolution Summit Panorama, just finished a first version. scroll down to bottom.

  Nico, let me suggest you change the last sentence on your webpage, just below the Summit panorama: "Thanks for visiting and...keep walking  ".It would be better "Thanks for visiting and...be careful not to fall of the chair ".That's what almost happenned to me after looking to that panorama. Beautiful! |

Spirit drove again today (sol 625) and is almost over Hillary outcrop.
http://qt.exploratorium.edu/mars/spirit/fo...UWP1214L0M1.JPG Here is also a quick navcam pano with the pancam shots superimposed. That is the driving direction for next sols, once the IDD work on Hillary is finished.

I look forward to MRO's images of the hills, to see the tracks on the summit seen in this sol 625 view.
Glad you like the pan guys, I like it a lot myself..even with the differences in brightness Cornell has the 240° calibrated one on their site and announces to complete the full 360 Nico -------------------- photographer, space imagery enthusiast, proud father and partner, and geek.
