shining object?
On the marsrovers website today, there
is a Spirit "look-back" panorama on the home page. If one views this at full resolution, and scrolls about 3/4 way to the right (past the tracks from the rover), there is visible what appears to be a shining rod-like object. This portion of the panorama can also be seen in a Sol 50 Navcam raw image (fourth last of the sol 50 navcam images). The object appears out-of-place with respect to its surroundings. It does not lie in the path of the rover tracks, but perhaps it is some debris from the landing system, maybe from the heat shield, which apparently landed on the rim of Bonneville crater according to the MGS images.
