NASA's Opportunity rover on Mars has survived eight earth years on the surface of the red planet, and it has now reached the place where scientists believe it has the best chance to survive the Martian winter, which they call Greeley Haven.

Visible in the distance is Endeavor Crater, which will be explored next summer if possible.

Below is the spot, Greeley Haven, helpfully photographed by the rover itself.
