Title: Mars 2008 (my photos)
Post by: Roman White on January 22, 2009, 05:31:27 pm
I had much doubt on where to post these shots: to 'Astronomy' or 'General' forum. Finally decided to post it here.

It was a short trip to the martian mid-latitudes on sol 1473 (by Opportunity) - equivalent to Mar.16,2008 on Earth.

I'm sorry to have very few images of that great red planet, but I had very little time before another spacecraft took me back on Earth.

Images are post-processed. You may not trust me, but they are real!  :)

You flew past me Roman when you passed over the Moon. Did you not see me thumbing a lift on Plato?  ;D

When "Phoenix" has confirmed the water on Mars? In summer 2008.
I did it earlier (see the #2 image)  ;D
