Astro Log 1.2; I'm curious like a cat. That's why my friends call me whiskers.

What's inside the Victoria crater? Now that the dust storms of Mars have toned it down, we can find out. The picture outlines a "possibly traversable" pathway down into the crater, taken by the martian rover, "Opportunity."
As a side note, the crater is the largest either of the rovers have yet to come across. It is significant because scientists hope to use it's depth to further their understanding of the planet's composition.
