    Cool but... I am pretty sure that it took photos that aren&#x27;t close ups. All of those photos are all close up of rocks and I am sure it took some more wide angle shots too?<p>Or some showing the horizon at the very least.<p>I can&#x27;t find any of those here as I work my way down the path.

    I don&#x27;t think it&#x27;s cool to hotlink every single raw image from NASAs server here.

    I find it so hard to figure out how close Curiosity is to the peak&#x2F;ridge of Mt Sharp and whether&#x2F;when it seems likely to cross over to the other side.

      Here is a map: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;science.nasa.gov&#x2F;mission&#x2F;msl-curiosity&#x2F;location-map&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;science.nasa.gov&#x2F;mission&#x2F;msl-curiosity&#x2F;location-map&#x2F;</a><p>It&#x27;s nowhere near the peak and is very unlikely to reach it.

        I’m aware of the map but I’m unclear on where the peak&#x2F;ridge is.

          The main peak is under the letter &quot;C&quot; in the &quot;Gale Crater&quot; text on that map.

    this is really cool but it&#x27;s missing a lot of context... like... they&#x27;re taking pictures of the ground beneath their feet. it would be a very autistic way to tell the story of a hobbit&#x27;s journey without the context of what they&#x27;re looking at and why.<p>this slideshow is missing a narrative. people normally travel and orient themselves by landmarks. their journeys are related amongst themselves by language surrounding common landmarks.<p>maybe the narrative for the rover isn&#x27;t available
