During Tuesdays press conference, one of the scientists, Dr Joy Crisp spoke about some of the locations they would like to send Opportunity to in the future. After leaving the current location a long drive to "Endurance Crater" is planned and after theat they would like to attempt a long drive to the South of about 2KM. This area has a mottled appearance, possibly with bedrock exposed on the surface, but I cant find images of this area - anyone help?

Also, a drive to the south after visiting Endurance Crater would take them close to the heatshield impact site - would it be a worthy scientific target?
