Now *that* is a photoblog. Chronologically indexed gallery of interplanetary snapshots from this weekend's Mars landing. The first images sent back are of limited quality -- and only in black and white -- because data transmission rate from Spirit's antenna back to Earth is limited. Higher-res color images are expected to be relayed back from the orbiting Mars Global Surveyor and Mars Odyssey Spacecraft later today, according to Mission Control. At left:

"This mosaic image taken by the navigation camera on the Mars Exploration Rover Spirit has been further processed, resulting in a significantly improved 360 degree panoramic view of the rover on the surface of Mars."

Link to NASA's Mars moblog, li nk to full-size, 360-degree composite panorama image. Link to SF Chron story with details on the image transmission process. (Thanks, Warren)

BoingBoing buddy John Parres says:
The Mars rover Opportunity has arrived at "Endurance Crater" revealing a variety of strata and rock formations and intriguing sand/salt formations at the bottom. At issue now is not whether Opportunity can roll in but whether she can climb back out for further investigations.

The Space.com bulletin boards are giddy at the possibility of investigating 'water seeps' One poster is reporting that a lead JPL scientists is predicting that Opportunity might last another six months. Another suggests that "the plan for Opprtunity is to head South/South West after it's done with Endurance Crater. The objective being the white area which would be an ideal area to look for fossils. If the rover can last as long as hoped though that puts some of the much larger craters within reach too!"
