Now yes - while it's fair to say we have arrived at the rim of Vic - the rule were that the 'arrival' date would be the sol at which the rover arrives at the point from which the mother-of-all-pans is taken... so we're not there yet. (i.e. We'll probably take photos when we arrive in Valencia on Sat PM - but personally, I wont feel I've arrived till the following morning when I have a look out the window....and you're right Fred - it's that FIRST big MOAP that is the important one )
But that doesn't mean we can't have a new thread Doug |

Well, now that we've "officially" arrived, the mystery men have come out of hiding. They were a little shy at first, hiding amongst the cliffs, but have emerged to welcome us to Vicky with their amicable waves.
Notice the men down in the dunes and those scattered along the far rim - navcam can barely resolve them at those distances. The pan is from Michael Howard's superb sol 952 navcam pan. Horton, I think your man on Frio matches my man's height almost exactly! |
