OPPORTUNITY UPDATE: On the Way to 'Fram Crater' - sol 84, Apr 19, 2004

Opportunity began sol 84, which ended at 3:34 p.m. PST on April 19, 
with some remote sensing observations and analysis with the microscopic 
imager and Mössbauer spectrometer. At 13:13 Mars Local Solar time,
Opportunity began a 25-meter (82 feet) drive toward "Fram Crater," taking 
images of its surroundings on the way. At the conclusion of the drive the 
rover acquired more remote sensing. 

Opportunity will spend sol 85, which ends at 4:13 p.m. PST on April 20, 
2004, using the instruments on its instrument deployment device to 
investigate a rock target at Fram Crater. 



OPPORTUNITY UPDATE: Finally at 'Fram' - sol 85, Apr 21, 2004

Opportunity got an up-close look at the rocky nature of "Fram Crater" as 
it approached the crater on sol 85, which ended at 4:13 p.m. PDT on April 
20. After some morning remote sensing, the rover drove to the target
rock dubbed "Pilbara," near the crater rim.

The wake-up song was "Take Me Out to the Ball Game!" by Jack Norworth 
in honor of all the baseball-related target names chosen this sol.

Plans called for Opportunity to grind into Pilbara with its rock 
abrasion tool on sol 86.
