Anyone feeling competitive? Just for the heck of it, and because it was
fun, I took a stab at guessing where Spirit has come to rest, based on the landing ellipse as shown he http://www.lpi.usra.edu/meetings/lpsc2003/pdf/1061.pdf This image from Space.Com: http://tinyurl.com/2k9a7 The DIMES images from the marsrover.jpl.nasa.gov site: http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/gallery/all/spirit.html It's an unabashed WAG, with a little help from the above data. I can't claim to have interpreted it exactly right, but I'll be interested to see how close I got. My guess is in this image he http://tinyurl.com/3dnub It's a 650k .jpg image. The blue oval marks the spot where I am guessing Spirit might have come to rest, although maybe it will end up being a little farther north and/or a little farther downtrack. The blue oval is a couple 2 or three miles in length. The entire image is contained in Gusev crater. Comments? Other guesses? Jon |
