I think, there are clouds in the sky! I saw clouds on some Viking-Pictures, but never before on MER-Pics ... biggrin.gif

On April 30 the MER-B rover obtained color images of the sunset with the L4, 5, and 6 filters. The original images caught half the inner twilight glow, with the right edge of the frame just catching the setting Sun. I first registered the Sun, which moved between the exposures, and the inner glows to the green image and obtained a plausable looking match in all 3 colors. I then 'mirrored' the frame and placed it so the Sun was a circle partially revealed from both sides. Finally I artistically 'filled in' the narrow middle strip of missing data.
