Almost total eclipse cruise
Almost booked and 100 percent satisfied.
In June, 2012 my eclipse buddy Christian found this ad by P&O Cruises which looked like a bargain. He almost completed booking, stumbled on insecure online payment procedures with "Bestcruises".
In hindsight, that saved us a lot of money and annoyance.
"Late arrival wrecks eclipse cruise. A special cruise ship set up to view the total eclipse ended in total disaster"

Total eclipse of a cruise for P&O - Thursday, 15 November 2012
P&O Cruises on Facebook:
"Pacific Jewel and Pacific Dawn were in perfect position to view today’s total eclipse of the sun in northern Australia!"
Actually, from the Pacific Dawn just offshore from Pt. Douglas, viewing conditions were suboptimal, clouds during totality.

Google Mars and Curiosity Update
Scenes created using an overlay of the color-enhanced view presented yesterday
The slope map by Tesheimer is here
The 360 degree high-res panorama has been added to Google Mars already.
Google Mars updated! from 2009, scientific use, still interesting.

Why is the altitude decreasing for several minutes after reaching about 160 km?
Look here "The imperative is to gain speed, even at the expense of some altitude"
