Cape York, Landfall! Options

[Tesheiner]

It’s finally time for a new thread. THE thread, I would say.
It is now sol 2681 and after virtually one thousand sols, beginning on 1683 when Opportunity left Victoria for good, and also after more than 21km driving on these flat fields, this little rover and obviously the brave mission’s people behind, made landfall on Cape York.
A bunch of pictures and thumbnails are already on the ground (should be public in an hour or so) and the very limited data we can gather for the time being are just enough to guess a drive of around 60m. I’ve prepared a new picture to use as a map to follow this part of the mission and which I will update, as usual, on the route map thread once more data are available. Here’s a copy of it.

Use this thread for comments, discussions, mosaics, images result of activities at / after sol 2681 and keep using the Post Conjunction: Santa Maria to Cape York, The Journey to 'Spirit Point' thread for posts related with stuff from before sol 2681.

Today is bill paying day for me. Which I do online. Yet all I can do is stare at the desktop image of Odyssey and the inner plains of Endeavour.
Just want to fall into the image, ruffle the regolith with my fingers and bound around the boulders with the far rim in the backgound!

Cannot wait for the MI images. Suspect Oppy is still in the blueberry fields, but with new stuff interlaced on the plain. And those bright veins!

But really want Opportunity to go for the phyllosilicates as soon as possible. Then go for context.

Just wonderful (and guess I better do my bills ... or NO online access to Mars anymore)!
