SOL 3

These images are some of the first images taken by the IMP from its deployed position. The IMP was deployed late in the day on Sol 2, but we had to wait until the Sol 3 downlink to know for certain that the deployment was successful. On Sol 3 the data rate was increased, and an amazing amount of data was returned. The IMP ran its "monster pan" sequence, a stereo panorama. It takes many images to make up the monster pan, because each frame is imaged twice. The team is currently working on assembling the panorama to create a complete 3D type panorama for public release.
