A cable running from the Central Station goes to the magnetometer. David R. Scott can be seen reaching for a drill to the right of the magnetometer.The Solar Wind Spectrometer is between Dave and Jim. To the right of Dave is the Heat Flow Electronics (HFE) box, with Mt. Hadley in the background beyond the HFE. The rover can be seen in the distance to the right of Mt. Hadley. The panorama is made from the frame set AS15-87-11843 to 11858.
