Inside Victoria Crater on Mars Title Inside Victoria Crater on Mars Title
Explanation:
NASA's Opportunity rover is now inside Victoria Crater [ http://antwrp.gsfc.…] on Mars [ http://en.wikipedia…]. Last week the robot rolled [ http://marsrovers.j…] about 20 meters into the largest crater any Martian rover [ http://en.wikipedia…] has yet encountered, the crater next to which Opportunity has been perched for months. Currently, the rolling explorer is situated in Duck Bay alcove [ http://antwrp.gsfc.…], peering across at the internal crater wall dubbed Cape St. Vincent [ http://antwrp.gsfc.…]. The above wide-angle view [ http://photojournal…] is from Opportunity's front hazard-identificatio n camera. Over the next few weeks, Opportunity [ http://antwrp.gsfc.…] is scheduled to explore this telling alien indentation, searching for clues to the ancient past of Mars before the huge impact that created Victoria Crater [ http://antwrp.gsfc.…] ever took place.
