There is a perfectly embossed disc in the close rocks on the left. What is that about? Does Mars come with cup holders? If so, how many? Is that what is fueling the Mars rovers? Martian lattes?

If this is a panorama, it is very squished, sideways. Also, I see a six-inch humanoid figure in the middle of this image!

Being surrounded by Mars, it is such an amazing view. Much of it is surprisingly smooth.

[The color is not right, fwiw. ]

Jarrell: Hold a camera in your hand. Aim it at your feet. Congratulations, you've taken a picture of yourself.

Am I the only one who needs an explanation as to what piece of equipment we are seeing in the photo?Is Opportunity taking a picture of itself? How?

Great panorama. The viewing for me is enhanced when I try to get my bearing as if standing alongside the rover looking out into the crater. For example I was able to locate the solitary crater carved atop one of the rocky outcrops from this low angle view (it's one of my favorite Victoria features) using an orbital overhead image. The crater's just barely visible over the rim of the outcrop to the right of the promontory with the nick in it, right of center. What a wonderful time to be alive, witnessing these adventures.

A most amzing view of the big crater and surroundings, and I think somehow the tracks is man made by humans.
It was worth waiting for.
