I thought you guys might be interested in seeing some results from a campaign we've been running to get mosaics of all the proposed MSL landing sites. We've currently got 22 of the potential landing sites made in day/night and vis, and many with thermal inertia. Here's 4 examples with links to the full pages. You can see the rest of them at http://themis.asu.edu/landingsites

Nili Fossae Trough

Holden Crater Fan

Terby Crater

Thanks for the reminder, Noel. Tim had also tipped us to this a short while back.

Holden Crater might turn out like Gusev Crater.

Some new data are available on the THEMIS MSL landing site selection website: http://themis.asu.edu/landingsites

The new data consist of THEMIS IR decorrelation stretch mosaics of the landing sites, which are intended to show the some of the compositional variability detectable by THEMIS.
