Here's a recent panorama I assembled from 3 images using filters 2,5,7.
I really like that layered rock ahead!

QUOTE (Bill Harris @ Jan 25 2005, 02:28 PM)
In future Rovers, I wonder if might be possible to have an air compressor and a hose to a "nozzle" mounted on the instrument arm to blow dust from the outcrop or lenses or solar panels? With the original "90-day warranty" Rovers that might have been unneeded, but with the Energizer Rovers a "preening" tool might be helpful.

--Bill

There's evidence that it's more an electrostatic issue - and that blowing compressed martian air at lenses will just sand-blast them quite effectively smile.gif
