Here's a recent image (just 6 hours ago). Looks like Opportunity is at the "berry bowl." Is that what this is?
 If so, maybe the density of berries isn't quite what they had hoped:  Image info for 1F132186603EFF05AMP1214R0M1.jpg Spacecraft: OPPORTUNITY Camera: Forward HAZCAM, right Spacecraft clock: 132186603 (seconds since January 1, 2000, 11:58:55.816 UTC) Product type: EDR full frame Site number: 05 Drive number: AM Command sequence number: P1214 (PMA or remote sensing instrument) HAZCAM Producer: MIPL/JPL Acquisition date (Earth): Wed Mar 10 05:17:56 EST 2004 Acquisition date (Mars): Sol 45 13:43:54 Current local Earth time: Wed Mar 10 12:13:58 EST 2004 Current local Mars time: Sol 45 20:20:22 Elapsed time since acquisition: 0 days, 06:47:21 -------------------- |

If it were anything else -it would have flagged up in the mossbauer and APXS work that has already seen these things measured, against soil and rock
There is also a proven, geological process that generates forms like this - for which there is plenty of evidence already. Doug |
