MER2003 A 'Spirit' landing site in the Gusev Crater


An ancient more icy view of the Gusev Crater. I tilted the camera 90 degrees, changed the atmosphere to show the aftermath of a dust storm.

The landing site is in the large Gusev Crater in the middle. See also the small image below for the landing site..

At the bottom the Ma'adim Vallis, a valley which fed the Gusev with water from the southern hemisphere.

View from northwest to southeast.
