Looks like Spirit is ready to attack Jibsheet smile.gif



When I saw this picture I thought I had seen it somewhere else before. Some place at Meridiani smile.gif

You may take a look at the 3D map: http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA07851

What's about "East Basin" and eastward of Husband Hill over the "pass" toward "Inner Basin"? I guess geological speaking, the summit of Husband Hill isn't that interesting object. What could argue for the summit region, unless we would get there a hell of a view tongue.gif ?

we shouldn't underestimate the "marketing value" of beautiful photos to raise
more public/media awareness and thus more interest and support for future missions smile.gif

Sure would be worth to sacrifice a couple of the 900 additional sols to "sightseeing" driving...
It would be a worth investment in the "public image" of Mars and the fundrising for future missions

(in addition to the "marketing value" there sould be also a value from
the engineering point of view to gather valuable experiences with difficult driving
situations (hill-climbing, sand-dune-crossing wink.gif *carefully* exploring the limits of the technology that can be very useful for the design of future rover generations ...)
