You've probably spotted odd Navcam sequences that involved lots of shots of the same 4 spots at different times of day.

If you take all the images from the 4 days they did this, you get 10 or 11 frames in sequence, each from about 0940 to 1715 lmst

I've sequenced the lot, having each frame last 1 second, with three, 0.2 second frames in between to fade from one to the next.

These are all 512 x 512, about 500-600kb, last about 17 seconds, and require QT7 (for H264 support)

Roughly North http://www.unmannedspaceflight.com/doug_images/t_l_o_1.mov
Roughly East http://www.unmannedspaceflight.com/doug_images/t_l_o_2.mov
Roughly South http://www.unmannedspaceflight.com/doug_images/t_l_o_3.mov
Roughly West http://www.unmannedspaceflight.com/doug_images/t_l_o_4.mov

It would probably be possible to reproject this as a little movie 'circle' with all 4 at once, but there's one frame missing from the West image, and...to be honest...I cant be bothered smile.gif

These are wonderfully atmospheric! - Really great to see the changing sun angles, especially with the shadow of the rover stretching out over the terrain. Thanks! Fabulous idea...
