opportunity's heat shield

I mentioned the other day that the Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity was headed toward the crash site of her heat shield. The good folks at NASA/JPL have released a great panoramic photo collage showing the the bulk of heat shield (top left,) some smaller fragments (upper center,) and the impact crater (right.) You can also spot Opportunity's shadow in the forground.

Dig the spring in this closer shot. In a couple of days we should have some up close and personal photos of that impact crater and the heat shield.
