"Hang on lads....I've got an idea"

It's been a while since we gave some tactile kudos to the rover teams both in Cornell and in JPL, the 1st Birthday card's are a distant memory now smile.gif A while back, I made some basic photo-mosaics of some MER scenes just for fun. Some worked. Some didn't. But I thought that a cumulative 2000 sols would be worth marking in some way, and so I set about trying to put together something for each side of the the US to mark the occasion. I'm not going to share these in full resolution - because then they could be reproduced...and these are both one offs, never to be reproduced.

Jim Bell over on the East coast handled things for me - hiding an A1 poster away until conjunction started so today I'll share what I sent that way......and on Monday I'll share what went west....

Attached - a browse size to see the full effect and a crop from the full resolution to give you an idea of what it's actually like. This was sent to Cornell about a month ago, as an A1 poster, as a thank you for the hours, the effort and the images smile.gif

Well - those two posters are intentionally not to be reproduced. John Callas asked if both teams could have both posters, so I sorted out very high res images so they could do that - but that's it..... I made them for the two teams (and the words in Emily's blog from yesterday are very very true and from the heart ) - and they're not going to be done for anyone else.

BUT....

I've thought about doing a third in the series that would be for everyone - and indeed I've already made a suggestions about doing it for TPS.....so lets see what happens....if all else fails....I'm sure I can hook something up via Cafe Press...but it'll be quite a few weeks before I know either way.
