      Description:

      • Mars Exploration Rover missions.

      Here’s what you get

      • Rover’s Opportunity, Spirit and Curiosity each have a full array of specialized cameras.
      • Each has taken hundreds of thousands of stunning images right from the surface of Mars.
      • You can choose which rover you want and the sol date that the pictures were taken.
      • The module will do the rest, giving you detailed information with each image.

      Examples:

      • One without a header.

      • Fully annotated css file for coloring, sizing, aligning . . .

      Version 1.0.0

              @Mykle1 Is there any way to just grab the latest image from a rover rather than set the sol?

                Good question. I will look into that. However, even if this option exists, it might not be suitable for the module. Why? Because if the latest picture doesn’t update often enough, you would basically be staring at the same picture, not knowing when the next would arrive.

                NASA has a “Picture of the Day” API. I chose not to use that API for the very same reason. The pictures can be amazing, but you only get one a day. The MARS rover pictures could be a lot longer

                  @mykle1 The rovers usually take lots of images for hazard avoidance (https://mars.nasa.gov/msl/multimedia/raw/) I’d be happy to see those if needs be. There aren’t many new ones there now I assume due to the US Government shutdown.

                  It would be a nice addition, but if not I still like the module anyway, and the EarthWinds one, though I’m still learning how to position it exactly where I want it on the screen.

                    I’m right in the middle of something right now so it’s unlikely I’ll get to that soon. Please feel free to fork the repo and make changes. I do appreciate that you like the module, so thank you.

                    EarthWinds was designed as a fullscreen module. Are you trying to use it in another way? In any case, you would likely have to use some custom css and/or play with your config.js entry. It definitely will help you if you know the resolution of your display. This is my config entry. You would have to change it to suit yours. I’ll try to help you with that if you can’t do it.

                    {
                            disabled: false,
                            module: 'MMM-EarthWinds',
                            position: 'fullscreen',
                            config: {
                                height:"1180px", // adjust
                    			width:"100%",    // adjust
                                animationSpeed: "3000",
                                updateInterval: 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000,
                            }
                        },

                      I don’t know the reason the data is absent. It may be because of the government shutdown, it may not. Personally, I don’t think that is the case. I had to go back to September in the query of the API for daily images. That just won’t do. You can change the date in the query yourself (retaining format) and see for yourself. There are months of no data at all leading up to today

                        @kellogg76 Unless there is an api to get those images it would take a lot of work to get them…
