Wow.
The detail there is pretty amazing! I hope they've got lower resolution context images too...

Oh, I bet they'll start including those.
I can't wait until they use the MRO to peer at some of the previous landers. Not really science, but I'm pretty nostalgic. Besides, even though the odds are tremendously, well, tremendous, wouldn't it be fascinating if they managed to find one of the old, failed Soviet landers?
Science-wise, I'm really anxious for it to peer at some of those "stains" that so often form along the inner rim of craters, the ones that look like seepage.

I love the fact that you can actually make out the shadow of the camera mast on the ground in this image
