The "Sand-Strewn" Summit of Husband Hill (2) - Sol 603
|
Original caption:"The largest light-colored rock in the foreground is nicknamed Whittaker while the cliff beyond it and slightly to the left is Tenzing. The highest rock on the ridge ahead has been dubbed Hillary. Science team members selected the nicknames in honor of the earliest climbers to scale Mount Everest on Earth.
This view covers approximately 50° of the compass from left to right. It is a mosaic assembled from frames Spirit took with the PanCam on Sol 603 (Sept. 13, 2005). It was taken through a blue (430-nanometer) filter and is presented as a cylindrical projection".
