Nobby’s Head
Opportunity used her Pancam to record this view of the rise in the foreground, Nobby’s Head on her Sol 3335 (June 11, 2013). The rover drove around the north and west sides of Nobby’s Head during a multi-week southward drive between two raised segments of the west rim of Endeavour Crater. This view is centered toward the south- southeast, with Opportunity’s next destination, Solander Point, toward the right edge of the view. Nobby’s Head is about a third of the way from Cape York, the rim segment where Opportunity worked for most of the past two years, to Solander Point. Opportunity began a trek of approximately 2 kilometers (1.2 miles) from part of Cape York to Solander Point in late May 2013.
