Martian Vistas

Here is the finished pan taken while Opportunity was examining the rocks at 'Chocolate Hills' (as seen at the bottom of the image) next to Concepción Crater.

At last the final pieces of the Concepción Crater pan are down. Here is my attempt at the final product.

Concepción is an amazing place with all the rocks strewn around forming crater rays, however most dramatic of all is the horizon with many peaks forming the rims of Endeavour, Izau and (if you look very closely, ~1/3 in from the right) you can see Bopolu Crater.

I wasn't going to post this, as there is more to add that was taken on sol 2156 but isn't downlinked yet. However as the previous Concepción Crater still hasn't been fully downlinked after several weeks, I'm keen to post something new.

Notice the very faint hills on the horizon about 1/4 in from the right edge - that is Bopolu Crater more than 50km away!

Here is the first part of the Concepción Crater pan (this is only 1/3 of the the images currently taken or planned).

Concepción is fabulous with all those rocks, however arguably the star of the picture is the horizon where the view of Endeavour and Izau craters has dramatically improved.

I'm still catching up on the last month or so of Oppy's life. What seems an age ago now she passed by these two craters taking quick mosaics:

Nautilus Crater

Here are most of the 'drive direction' mosaics from the last month. These are taken after each drive looking in the direction of the next drive to help the drivers plan the route. They are made using just the red and blue (R2 & R1) filters with synthetic green.
