Where opportunity is headed downhill there are active sand dunes which would ensure regular cleaning took place. That would be a good location to park opportunity when the wheels pack in. There is an argument for parking opportunity for two years there in any case because of the radio experiment that can be done to investigate the core from a parked lander. There is a plan to launch the insite mission next year to do this radio science experiment, but if this failed then opportunity could perform the radio science experiment whilst filming moving dunes |
