NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity used its navigation camera to record this view of Santa Maria Crater at the end of a drive on Dec. 15, 2010 , the 2,450th Martian day, or sol, of the rover's work on Mars.
Santa Maria Crater is about 295 feet (90 meters) in diameter. Opportunity will spend a few weeks investigating this crater before resuming Opportunity 's long-term trek toward Endurance Crater.
