re: Opportunity pushing for Victoria Crater
...PPT slides that describe Victoria as the sort of place where you would happily go in knowing you can't come out as there is nothing within a realistic range to visit after Victoria.
Is there anyplace cool within unrealistic range of Victoria? I would vote for spending as much time at Victoria crater as necessary for all possible studies, but my more romantic side likes the idea of the rover popping back out of the crater some day and heading for some exotic destination, even if it never makes it.
