OK - for a little diversion, give your best guess as to the arrival of Oppy at Victoria. Before we do that, perhaps some agreement as when we can say that event has happened.

First complete panorama of crater interior perhaps?

You took my number, Chris!

OK, I guess I have to back up one and say Sol 998. I have in my head that we'll make it to Victoria, and at the moment we begin to take the panorama of all panoramas, the S1K bug will wipe out the flash memory and that will be the end of that... ohmy.gif
