This is a new pool, similar to Victoria Crater arrival bets.
Now Oppy is still around between 2 to 4 weeks away from Beagle Crater so the bet must, tentatively, be closed by next Wednesday. My bet of Oppy arrival at Beagle crater is: Sol 877 (July 12). Rodolfo |

874 (July,9 - my birthday! )
Edit: this date is reasonable based on the average distance covered in last two weeks (close to 20m/Sol) unless they completely stop Oppy for new navigation program upload... -------------------- I always think before posting! - Marco -

Dilo, july 9 will also be the day of the final of the Soccer World Cup where we still have the possibility of an Italy-France match. So I go for july 9 + 11 days = july 20th (also another known "birthday" ) i.e. sol 885 (also called D-50 to VC). Good luck! -------------------- |

I'm going to be optimistic, the drivers are doing a great job, so : 871.

Mmm...the dunes still scare me, and they appear both taller and more numerous lately, so I'll bet that additional caution will be exercised by the drivers in the near future. Put me down for Sol 906.

I'll go for sol 882, just a guess based on a quick look at Tesheiner's route map and Oppy's driving so far.
