ZP-H-PIA10126.jpgSpirit's Traverse Map, from Sol 1 up to Sol 138685 visiteCaption NASA:"NASA's MER Spirit was crossing Northward on a low plateau called Home Plate on the 1386th Sol (such as Nov. 26, 2007) of Spirit's time on Mars.
By that time, nearly 47 months into a mission originally planned to last 3 months, Spirit had driven 7435 mt (4,62 miles).
From its Landing Site near the North-Western corner of this map, Spirit crossed a plain to reach the Columbia Hills, climbed over the Summit of Husband Hill, and then descended into the Inner Basin of the range, near the South-Eastern corner of the map.
For this map, the yellow line indicating Spirit's route has been overlaid onto a portion of an image taken by the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment on NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter on Nov. 22, 2006, That image is catalogued as PSP_001513_1655 (see also PIA01897). The scale bar on the map is 500 mt (1640 feet) long.

ZP-J-PIA10129.jpgSpirit nears North-Tilting Site for Winter Haven88 visiteCaption NASA:"NASA's MER Spirit made daily progress in early December 2007 toward the Northern Edge of a low plateau called Home Plate. The rover's operators selected an area with North-Facing Slope there (indicated by the blue-outlined rectangle) as a destination where Spirit would have its best chance of surviving low-solar-energy conditions of oncoming Martian Winter.
As indicated by the yellow line tracing the path Spirit has driven, the Rover was near the Western Edge of the plateau on Sol 1390 of the mission (Nov. 30, 2007), but nearing the Northern Edge by Sol 1397 (Dec. 8, 2007).
A north-facing slope helps Spirit maximizes electric output from its Solar Panels during Winter months because Spirit is in the Southern Hemisphere of Mars, so the Sun appears only in the Northern Sky during Winter. For the 3rd Winter, which will reach its minimum solar-energy days in early June 2008, Spirit faces the challenge of having more dust on its Solar Panels than it had during its 2nd Winter.
The base image for this map is a portion of a color image taken on Jan. 9, 2007, by the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment camera on NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter".MareKromium

as16-107-17436.jpgAS 16-107-17436 - Orion's portrait (with LR and Master Antenna)55 visiteCaption NASA:"143:13:18 MT - This frame is part of a pan that Charlie Duke took at the start of EVA-2. It shows the LM, MESA, Rover. John is beyond the Rover collecting a rock sample. On the left side of the image, as shown in a detail, we see the empty Quad III Payload Pallet compartment where the UV camera was stowed. The thermal blanket that covered the compartment hangs down from the bottom. As indicated on page 194 of the Final Lunar Surface Procedures document, the LRV Aft Pallet was stowed to the left of the Payload Pallet".MareKromium
