http://marsrovers.nasa.gov/mission/rover_update.html

On February 7th, Opportunity had covered 6 miles on mars' surface, more than 17 times the distance it was originally supposed to cover. The rover has been on mars for nearly 2 years. The rover is studying a crater that gives further proof that water existed on mars at one time. The rover is also collecting rocks that offer more information about the composition of the planet.
