Don't look now, guys, but your image, as reprinted at APOD, made Opportunity jealous! Take a look at her live journal.
Of course, Oppy does get jealous of her sister... there's a good amount of sibling rivalry going on there...  -the other Doug -------------------- “The trouble ain't that there is too many fools, but that the lightning ain't distributed right.” -Mark Twain

Oh, Spirit has her own live journal too:
spirit rover But Spirit's journal isn't updated even as often as Oppy's -- and Spirit has always been the problem child. She had that schizophrenic episode back on Sol 18, remember. She's always writing dark, depressing poetry about dark and cold and such... Actually, the whole thing is clever, and I appreciated someone taking the time to put together those live journals. And our MERs aren't the only probes with live journals at that site... Hubble Space Telescope Stardust SOHO GOES 9 and 10 (Sibling Rivalry, Satellite-Style) Sojourner (aka Pathfindress) And my personal favorite, that plucky Mars probe that doesn't yet know the Soviet Union has fallen and exists no more: Mars 3 Unfortunately, whoever had the clever idea of setting up these live journals has obviously developed a life or something int he past year -- most of the journals have been pretty inactive for the past 12 to 18 months. But they're amusing, and the Mars 3 journal is outstandingly entertaining! His journal entries begin back in 1971... -the other Doug -------------------- “The trouble ain't that there is too many fools, but that the lightning ain't distributed right.” -Mark Twain

That's a truly amazing image and I just found it yesterday in our University's library
 Some questions: For the BIS ( British Interplanetary Society ) monthly magazine ' Spaceflight ' we're searching a spectacular MER image to put on the cover of the magazine which will have the 1 Martian year on the Red planet article ... 1. Could we use this image ? 2. What would the copyright be ? 3. If the answer is affirmative, could one of the 4 authors, send me a high resolution version please ? On the other hand: Is that particular ' Aviation Week & Space Technology ' still available ? Thanks in advance, Philip

I think they must publish an errata with their apologies in the next issue...  Anyway, I think will be hard for me to find an hardcopy here... can someone kindly post (or send to me and co-authors) a scan of this page? Thanks! -------------------- I always think before posting! - Marco -

I suspect that Aviation Week has certain rights to the image now, and sold it... ...it's *still* nice to be responsible for a full-page of New Scientist, though!
