Both Rovers had a projected lifetime on Mars of just 90 days in which to collect scientific data and photographs. The Rovers excelled in every respect and worked on the Martian surface for many years. This book is the second volume in a series which records the exploration of the Rover "Opportunity". This volume records the period from the start of 2005 when Opportunity left Endurance Crater to its arrival at Victoria Crater at the end of 2006. These volumes are created from the sol by sol (day by day) logs provided to us all by the NASA web sites along with the photographs taken by the different cameras on Opportunity. All profits from this series of books will be donated to third world projects.
