AND ALL ALONG I THOUGHT CURIOSITY WAS ON MARS TO ROVER AROUND WHERE EVER THEY STEERED THE ROVER TO GO, BUT THEY ARE INSIDE GALE CRATER. I NEVER REALLY THOUGHT ABOUT THAT. I THINK SOMEONE SAID AT ONE POINT THAT GALE CRATER WAS NINE MILES BY TWELVE MILES.

Do we really trust what NASA says about Mars? I wonder if we more then two rover going on at the same time. NASA spend billions on building rover but only sent two? It would be make more sense to send 4 rovers to explore.,

I totally feel the same way.. Also why does curiosity not have 4 or 6 Mini Race Car style rovers that are expendable during the mission. So if something is far away we cant get to with the big rover, we can drop that and basically control the remote control car type rover as close as we can to it. Then leave it..

Thanks for using the forums! Glad to have you here!

Thank you to everyone who has stuck by the YouTube channel and to all of our admins and forum users here on the channel.   They really have kept the website current while I have been busy taking care of things in my personal life.   I promised that the next video would be a long one and have a LOT to look at.  You can get lost in these Gigapans and I really hope that you do!  I spent a lot of time stitching these together and making sure that they were the best quality that I could get them.  SOL 1448 really has been a goldmine for anomaly hunters and those people who are just hobbiest.  I really hope you enjoy this one and expect much more to come from the latest batches of images!
