2. Ok, so you've had a good look at "the rock" imaged by the Mars Exploration Rover Spirit (MER-A) on sol (Martian day) 66. You have some perspective as to where it sits (next to the rim of Bonneville crater) and what's around it (near a large relatively darkly colored rock and close to a smaller rock with an X on it's end.) You have also…
3. Now we have figuratively and literally reached our destination. I have previously emphasized that you should pay close attention to Kilroy's rock and notice how its appearance evolves over the course of the six days Spirit spent at Bonneville.
Finally, it's time to see why I have gone into so much detail presenting context and background…
Get out your 3D glasses to view these images! In addition to being really cool, these anaglyphs are of practical use in helping us to better understand what we are seeing. In copmparison to standard two dimensional images 3D imaging provides us with a great deal more information in two ways. The first is that two separate images of the same object provides us with what in essence is greater resolution from the use of two separate images are used to create the effect. The second is that addition of a third spatial dimension inherent in the anaglyph format helps us to differentiate between objects and to better understand relative placement and separation between objects that we might not see in the 2D image.
