This morning Hans Nyberg sent me the most impressive panorama Ive seen of Mars yet, made from images released by NASA on August 27. Put it at full screen and look around. Its just like being right there, but with oxygen and air conditioning.The size of Mount Sharp—which is 12 miles 20 kilometers from the rover—is truly impressive. Its the first time that we have been able to see such terrain features on Mars—which actually feels like Death Valley, Mojave or any other desert on Earth. Except for the rattlesnakes. [Panoramas]
It's my life, you're just along for the ride!
