Okay gang... it looks like our brave gal will be heading into Victoria at some point - once she's proven that the dark streaks are caused by dark dust belching out of the crater! wink.gif - but things are a little quiet for now so here's a question for all to ponder...

As Oppy heads into Victoria, what's the ONE thing you really, really want to see in there? Something purely scientific, like a specific geological feature..? Something aesthetic, like a sunset seen from within the crater, or the rover's shadow on the dunes?

What's the one pancam or navcam image you have in your mind that you want to find when you go online, that will make you lean towards the screen and go "Oh my...."?

A variation on Edward's theme: A vertical pancam panorama, a strip say 1x6, reaching up from cliff base to cliff top. Though I don't suppose you'd call it a "panorama" in that case.

I'd love a time lapse of a day at Vicky too, but I think I might prefer it from the outside, with Oppy set atop the Beacon. Perhaps a realistic project for a post-mobility (shudder shudder) rover.

A vertical panorama? - in TV-speak here in the UK, the vertical version of a pan is a tilt. So I'm coining the word tiltorama! Though if the view was of a distinctive object - and with a nod to nprev - I rather like the idea of a "featurama".

An example of a tiltorama is attached...Giant Sequoia tree just doesn't fit in one frame.
