All the latest MI images from Opportunity shows this part of the rover:

http://qt.exploratorium.edu/mars/opportuni...KCP2957M1M1.JPG

The only thing I can think of is that it is an image taken with the IDD stowed.

Actually the front hazcam pictures confirms this. What can the reason for this be? huh.gif

A problem with the IDD so it didn't unstow, but somehow the MI carried out its tasks? blink.gif
