I will sleep better now tonight

That was quite enjoyable. As someone with a physical inability to see 3D in a static image, that gives me a taste of what the rest of you can see in the anaglyphs.

Yes very good flyover, speaking as another who cannot see the anaglyphs.
of course we will never be able to land in such rough terrain.

I'm confused...

Starting on sol 20 the Peter Pan sequences transitioned to 'near field' work which implies that the horizon pan was done.

However I can't find any images taken (or planned) between 90 and 130 degrees. Am I missing something?

There've been some interesting choices. There is a list of prioritized images with time of day constraints that depend on direction. Ideally, when a time is available, the highest priority set that fits that time goes into the plan. Ideally they do not wander around in time. There is a 3x2 chunk of horizon missing; a 3x1 (top part) was taken on 22 and was on the lander prior to shutdown. I haven't checked the analysis of what survived shutdown to make it to the AM pass. Many sol 20 pan images were lost when an MRO pass failed and there was too much unsent data for the meager flash--that's an everyday risk.

Thanks for the quick and detailed reply Mark, an interesting insight into the sol to sol operations.

Glad I haven't missed anything, but sorry some has been lost - looking forward to more when you get it.
