All that bouncing deserves a round of applause!

Lots of very cool pics not in the press releases (for some reason they've
chosen utterly boring ones to give the press). See below for the latest
images..

I'm guessing the color panoramic cams haven't yet been deployed, which is
why we're getting little monochrome pics off the navicam thus far. These are
pretty damn good quality for a robotic navigational aid - this thing can see
better than I can!

I'd like to see a big American flag decal or at least the NASA logo in
one of the frames. In a lot of the frames. Let there be no doubt who
has the biggest technological balls on Earth - even bigger than the
most incompetent mangement's clippers.

Heh...I figure that one of the reasons the initial pics were so boring
was that they were the very first pics, whatever they could get out of
the thing at the time (or just after the time) of landing.

Unlike the Beagle 2, however, this one's alive and at least partially
working.

As for said Beagle 2: I suspect they're thousands of miles apart... :-)

Just a little note; many of the pictures at the link above are stereo
pairs; they're monochrome, but 3-D (just cross your eyes).
