Husband Hill

It was named in honor of Rick Husband, the commander of the Space Shuttle Columbia when it disintegrated upon atmospheric reentry (see Space Shuttle Columbia disaster).

In 2005, the Spirit rover, as part of its exploration of its landing site, slowly climbed to the top of Husband Hill.

Named areas on the hill include the "Cumberland Ridge", where rocks with higher than normal phosphorus content exist, and "El Dorado", a dark albedo feature on the south side.

Husband Hill rises about 351 ft (107 m)[2] above surrounding plains.
