This image shows the route that NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity
had driven through its 659th Martian day, or sol, (Dec. 1, 2005) relative
to the potential destination of "Victoria Crater" farther south. The base
image is a portion of a mosaic (previously released as PIA07506) combining
images from the Mars Observer Camera on NASA's Mars Global Surveyor
orbiter, the Thermal Emission Imaging System on NASA's Mars Odyssey
orbiter, and Opportunity's own Descent Image Motion Estimation System.
The scale bar at lower right is 800 meters (one-half mile).
