Bye, bye, Erebus!
The journey south has started and I think it's time to start a new thread. This is a very first estimation of the current position after sol 760 drive, plotted on top of a previous route proposal; I will double-check that once the back-looking navcams are downlinked.
(Sol 758 "drive-direction" pancam mosaic) Edited: I measured the net drive to that point; it's about PS: Algorimancer, your Photogrammetry and RangeFinder Application is simply great!!! This post has been edited by Tesheiner: Mar 15 2006, 10:16 AM |

The UHF sequences have to be written well in advance ( a few weeks ) and then checked and rechecked before being uplinked several days in advance.
By the time something is sorted with MEX or MGS, the Odyssey problem will be sorted. I've asked JB to keep me updated, Meanwhile it's just “FIX YOUR DAMN SPACECRAFT….please” to LMA and holding tight until she’s un-safed Doug |
