Photo Gallery: Southwest of Spirit's Landing Site
Written by Fraser Cain
This image mosaic was taken by the Mars Spirit rover while it was still sitting on its landing platform - the direction is to the southwest of the landing site. The landscape is very flat, scattered with small rocks and occasional shallow depressions; the narrow peak of a hill is visible seven to eight kilometres away. The image was taken using Spirit's Panoramic Camera.
