## Caption

This image shows the feature dubbed “Home Plate” in Gusev Crater, the site of the #Mars Exploration Rover Spirit's investigation of the surface. 
Spirit is visible inside the perimeter of the bright “Home Plate” feature, near the 5:30 position. This color image was created using only the blue-green and red #HiRISE channels, so the “B” in this RGB product was synthesized using data from the two available channels.
