Original caption:"Home Plate, a bright, semi-circular feature scientists hope to investigate, is harder to discern in this image than in earlier views taken from higher up the hill. Spirit acquired this more oblique view, known as the Seminole Panorama, from about halfway down the south flank of Husband Hill, 50 mt (about 164 feet) or so below the Summit. Near the center of the Panorama, on the horizon, are McCool Hill and Ramon Hill, named, like Husband Hill, in honor of the fallen Astronauts of the space shuttle Columbia.
Husband Hill is visible behind the Rover, on the right and left sides of the panorama. An arc of rover tracks made while avoiding obstacles and getting into position to examine rock outcrops can be traced over a long distance by zooming in to explore the panorama in greater detail".
