Opportunity from HiRISE, sol 1,949 (July 19, 2009) The HiRISE camera aboard Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter captured this view of Opportunity on July 19, 2009, sol 1,949 of the mission. Opportunity had departed on a easterly coarse but would turn around on sol 1,950 in order to investigate Block Island, a meteorite so large that is actually visible in this image.
