And *most* of us here know to respect mission personnel's judgment when it comes to deciding how much to discuss. Pushing professionals to reveal more is short-sighted and counter-productive, because if they reveal more than they should they can be (and have been) told to shut up completely (or at least warned of dire consequences if they make a mistake again, which amounts to the same thing).

Stunning views everyone. Ahhh yes... Mt. Sharp. Here's yet one more in 3D...



With so much time spent scrutinizing ground details, whenever the whole of Mt. Sharp can be integrated into the view, it just reminds one of things to come; getting over to that behemoth and uncovering it's majesty and mystery close up. Taking a step back in perspective, it still astonishes me how remarkable it is that this incredible machine was actually flown to - and landed safely - in this amazing place.
