Raw updates seem to be coming on time now and not days late. The http://qt.exploratorium.edu/mars is still quicker, but JPL site is also updating the images more often than during the last couple of weeks.
This is good news, we can keep up where the rovers are roving again from the raw images. Hopefully they have now some sort of automatic image updating set up.

What's not getting updated are the written descriptions of what's happening. Last I saw, both updates were on the order of a week old. As for the linked image -- the more I look at those layers beneath the evaporite layers, the more it looks like good old fashioned sandstone to me...

maybe the updates are slow, because there was nothing to update!
since the flight-plan updates are also slow, we see that: Spirit Gets an Unexpected Break A software fault on sol 131 kept Spirit still for a couple sols, but gave the rover plenty of time to store up energy for a record breaking autonomous navigation drive on sol 133 more>> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A Sol for Rest and Recharging Opportunity prepares for some easy-going sols to re-charge its batteries more >> |
