IS Spirit Now? NASA won't commit themselves but I will !
I got tired of waiting for someone kind to post a location for the Spirit lander, so I worked it out myself. The big clue is the distant "Bump" on the horizon which turns out to be associated with a large crater outside the landing ellipse. The "Peaks" are part of a raised area of terrain south-east of the lander while the low "hills" to the left are actually a small impact crater.
