I think it's time for a new thread for Opportunity after her Block Island Studies and time to think about where
the Mars Rover Drivers are going to send Her. Will they decide to head south of Block Island or go back
to the western route they were on before?

Where ever they go. I hope they find some more interesting surprises along the way.

One Question I do have regarding the Rovers. Have they ever found any Diamonds or Gold along the way
and if mars did have them. Would they be buried beneath the surface??? Something I've been wondering
about for a while if any precious metals would be on Mars or Not? I would say yes.
