Oh, hi.

As Opportunity watched Sol 4999 dawn she took pictures of the sunrise. Here they are, processed & colourised (full credit on image). Just think... a robot, on Mars, 4999 days into its 90 day mission, stood on the rim on an ancient crater and watched the Sun rise. For us. For you.

As the clock rolls over to Sol 5000 - a huge thank you to the thousands of engineers and scientists who got me this far.

Sol 4999 sunrise from PanCam in color, and Navcam in BnW with some feint clouds.

I don’t know about you....but I think I look pretty good for a rover 5000 sols into a 90 sol mission.
