Opportunity reaches Victoria Crater on Mars



The Mars Rover Opportunity has reached Victoria Crater on Mars: a half-mile in diameter.

They've taken a panorama from the rim (2.7MB).

Take a look at this full-res sharp image of a cliff to right of the rover: http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/gallery/all/1/p/952/1P212696205EFF76EKP2388R1M1.JPG
The rock has a smooth almost sculpted quality to it.

No color images yet--they've concentrated on stereo images.
