Location of various shed parts of Opportunity lander

The following image from the Mars Rov[img]er web site helps put the location of things in perspective:

This image was produced (nearly a year ago!) after Opportunity landed, but before it started moving around. The dot labelled "Opportunity lander" is the small crater where it landed. The large circle to the right is, of course, Endurance Crater, where it spent many months exploring. Below that is the heat shield that it is going to inspect.
