If a human with perfect vision donned a spacesuit and stepped onto the martian surface, the view would be as clear as this sweeping panorama taken by NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Spirit. That's because the rover's panoramic camera has the equivalent of 20-20 vision. Earthlings can take a virtual tour of the scenery by...

More than 1.5 years into their exploration of Mars, both of NASA's Mars Exploration Rovers continue to send a cornucopia of images to Earth. The results are so spectacular that Deputy Project Manager John Callas recently described them as "an embarrassment of riches." Spirit produced this image mosaic, nicknamed the "W...

This stunning image mosaic of the "Columbia Hills" is the first 360-degree panorama taken since the Mars Exploration Rover Spirit arrived at the hills over a month ago. The rover has been busy studying the rocks here, which show evidence of past alteration by water. The dark patch of soil to the right is the spot where...

Half of this panorama was first released on March 15, 2004. The entire mosaic, recently completed, reveals not only the crater rim and int...

This panorama was taken in Sam Houston Park where I went to search for this statue. A few years ago, when I first saw it, it was further up the incline to the east, but has now sort of been hidden and/or covered up by the trees. It was erected in 1908 and is truly historical. The original panorama extended further...
