From Spirit's Perspective
NASA's image library records From Spirit's Perspective.
This frame from an animation shows the perspective from the navigation camera on the Mars Exploration Rover Spirit before its automated stand-up process. After standing up, the rover is approximately 12 inches higher off of the lander, resulting in a better view of the surrounding terrain. An animation is available at http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.g
