Mars Panorama - Curiosity rover: Martian solar day 106
Out of this World

NASA's Mars Exploration Program (Image credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/MSSS) 

 

Sol 106: To Bump Or Not To Bump

The images for panorama obtained by the rover's 34-millimeter Mast Camera. The mosaic, which stretches about 30,000 pixels width, includes 121 images taken on Sol 106 (November 23, 2012).

There was a lot of discussion of whether to "bump" the rover a few meters farther to improve the view toward Yellowknife Bay, our near-term drive objective. I was SOWG Chair for this first of 2 "multisol" plans which would allow the operations team to take a break during the Thanksgiving holiday. Because it was the first time we had planned more than one sol's worth of activities at a time, we kept the plan simple. In addition to the Mastcam mosaics, we planned some atmospheric observations and DAN (neutron spectrometer) measurements in our new location.

The planet Earth has proven to be too limiting for our awesome community of panorama photographers. We're getting an increasing number of submissions that depict locations either not on Earth (like Mars, the Moon, and Outer Space in general) or do not realistically represent a geographic location on Earth (either because they have too many special effects or are computer generated) and hence don't strictly qualify for our Panoramic World project.But many of these panoramas are extremely beautiful or popular of both.So, in order to accommodate our esteemed photographers and the huge audience that they attract to 360Cities with their panoramas, we've created a new section (we call it an "area") called "Out of this World" for panoramas like these.Don't let the fact that these panoramas are being placed at the Earth's South Pole fool you - we had to put them somewhere in order not to interfere with our Panoramic World.Welcome aboard on a journey "Out of this World".
