Dayum! That is cool! I loaded that on my iPad and set it to full screen - by just tilting and panning it was like having Google Mars!

Where the heck is the camera??? After looking at that for a while and spinning it every which way, I can't figure out where the camera is. Is it floating or something? :confused5:

That's really cool, but is it real? You cant see a boom or anything holding the camera.

That's what Danielle and I were trying to figure out. You can zoom out and a full pan/scan shows nothing attached to where the image is being shot from. :confused:

Very :cool: to see the landscape as well as the sun in the N.E. sky.

There are 17 cameras on board so maybe they took pictures from all those cameras and somehow put them all together?

Is that a little joy stick on the big white box (view NE - directly under the sun - er spotlight for the non believers!)

Panoramic photo by Andrew Bodrov Taken 14:23, 14/08/2012


Numerous images stitched together to make the panorama.
It really does make it look like the camera is floating above the rover.
