Nasa announced earlier that Opportunity will head for Vostok Crater, due South.
I assembled this colored mosaic to get a better idea of what lies ahead. Reaching the crater Victoria in the south should not be a problem, I only hope the rocky terrain north of the crater will allow Opportunity to travel in more or less a straight line. There sure are plenty of interesting sites to explore in this area! -------------------- photographer, space imagery enthusiast, proud father and partner, and geek.

A new flight director's update is up (they are getting busy, its been months between the updates before this one) and Oppy is going to be investigating the heat shield further.
Strange. I guess they saw something needing a second look in the heat shield. -------------------- Antti Kuosmanen
