CodeOptimist Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 About time someone started a thread for the Mars Spirit mission To kick off the discussion, here's an interesting applet I found:http://www.giss.nasa.gov/tools/mars24/It displays a graphical representation of the current Mars time.Main NASA Mars Mission site: http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/home/index.htmlFirst Hi-Res Mars Photo: http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/gallery/pre...IA04995_br2.jpg (awesome )Finally, we got another lander onto the "spacecraft graveyard", as Mars is frequently called. Let's hope that the Opportunity lander has the same success!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Op Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 Nice find Nathan, especially the Mars24 applet. That gives me an idea. Maybe someone can create something like Mars24 except it marks where area do WFG members and forumers live. Might not be neccessary but it might be fun to have.

CodeOptimist Posted January 8, 2004 Author Share Posted January 8, 2004 That's an interesting idea, Black Op Do you mean we would pic "locations" on Mars for us? Or it would be mapped to Earth locations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Op Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 To Earth locations of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkAngelBGE Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 Well, may be a lot of work, but that should be feasible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodeOptimist Posted January 8, 2004 Author Share Posted January 8, 2004 Here's something interesting: http://mars.telascience.org/downloads.htmlMaestro is a tool for viewing the data collected by the rover. Reportedly it's the same app that NASA uses internally! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
