Finally, Spirit's making some progress towards Larry's Leap. It'll be refreshing to see different topography for a change.
One item I'm curious about and I've seen only a few messages here on it. What is the general concensus here about the feature called the "Ultreya Abyss"? The orbital images don't show much: there _is_ a low albedo feature there but I can't say that it is a opening. Early in the mission, I recall that Spirit was to go to Ultreya after contacting the West Spur but those plans changed by the time she got to Columbia Hills. I imagine that the planners wanted something different than the basaltic plain and wanted to examine layered exposures. --Bill -------------------- |
