Victoria Crater – Take On Mars
Template:wide image Victoria is an impact crater on Mars located at 2.05°S, 5.50°W, it is 730 metres wide, and approximately 70 metres deep. It was origonaly explored by Opportunity in 2006, however in this game any vehicle will be used to explore the game model of Victoria crater.
There is currently 33 missions, since the August 22ed update. It has received various updates since the launch the most noticeable are the missions, and rock layouts.
Game Description
Victoria Crater is an ancient impact crater located at the Meridiani Planum extraterrestrial plain, lying situated within the Margaritifer Sinus quadrangle region of the planet. The investigation of Victoria Crater provides great opportunity to gain an insight in the processes of crater degradation on Mars.

Missions
Victoria Crater
Updates
August 22, 2013 the campaign was adjusted.
Description
The day has come and humankind is on the verge of historical event. The first human made vehicle will land on the surface of our neighboring planet, the mysterious Mars. Your mission is to land this vehicle to the inside of the huge Victoria Crater. The lander's main task is to perform an analysis of atmosphere inside of the chasm, but of course it would also be beneficial to collect many photographs of the crater's inner craggy rim.
Objectives
Explore Victoria: Worth: $10k Priority: Major Explore the insides of Victoria Crater
Photograph Rim 1: Worth: $30k Priority: Minor Photograph part of the Crater's inner rim
Photograph Rim 2: Worth: $30k Priority: Minor Photograph part of the Crater's inner rim
Dark streaks
To successfully complete this mission you will first need to land your vehicle exactly on one of the dark streaks, so that you are able to execute subsequent analyses. After landing, monitor Mars's atmosphere in this area. However the most important task is to perform an analysis of the blue sand from the dark streaks with the soil probe. Optionally you may photograph the dark streaks and the two nearby impact craters.
Objectives
Explore: Streaks
Worth: $10k
Priority: Major
Survey the dark streaks region.
Analyze: Atmosphere Worth: $30k Priority: Major Monitor an atmospheric situation in the dark streaks region.
Analyze: Soil Worth: $60k Priority: Major Analyze the blue sand from the dark streak with the soil probe.
Photo: Streaks Worth: $20k Priority: Minor Take photographs of the dark streaks your vehicle landed on.
Photo: Craters Worth: $20k Priority: Minor Take photographs of the two nearby craters.
Sand crater
Your next goal is to explore a sand crater located right at the edge of the Victoria Crater. First photograph the inside of the sand crater to get more detailed overview of the area and then check the radiation levels. Due to the suitable position of this location right next to the large crater, it would also be convenient to take some photos of the Victoria's rocky edges.
Objectives
Explore: Crater Worth: 10K Priority: Major Explore the sand crater and it's surroundings.
Photo: Rocky rim 01 Worth: $10k Priority: Minor Photograph the rocky edge of Victoria's rim.

Analyze: Radiation Worth: $10k Priority: Major Measure the radiation levels inside of the sand crater.
Two impact craters
Tracker Tag The mission consists of examining one bigger and one smaller crater situated nearby each other. Use your vehicle to photograph the inside of both craters, scan selected rocks in their centers with APXS and then gauge the radiation levels in both of the areas. Objectives
Explore: Two craters Worth: $10k Priority: Major Examine two nearby impact craters.
Photo: Crater Worth: $10k Priority: Major Photograph the inside of the smaller crater.
Analyze: Rock scan 01 Worth: $60k Priority: Major Use your APXS to scan a rock inside of the smaller crater.

Analyze: Radiation 01 Worth: $30k Priority: Major Measure the radiation levels inside of the bigger crater.
Rock formation near Victoria
Your next goal is to collect photographs from around one rock formation at the edge of Victoria Crater. You might also use the opportunity to photograph the crater's inner craggy rim from closer distance. After that, drive your vehicle to the peak of Victoria's rim and perform there a measurement of Mars's atmosphere. Objectives
Explore: Formation Worth: $10k Priority: Major Explore the area at the edge of Victoria.
Photo: Formation Worth: $30k Priority: Major Collect photographs from around the rock formation.
Analyze: Atmosphere Worth: $40k Priority: Major Monitor the atmospheric conditions at the peak of Victoria's rim.

Photo: Rocky rim 02 Worth: $20k Priority: Minor Photograph the rocky edge of Victoria's rim.
Group of impact craters
Tracker Tag
This mission consists of exploring several smaller impact craters and monitoring environmental situation in the area. Make photographs and check radiation levels in the first three craters, scan selected rock with APXS and then continue towards the fourth crater, which is located slightly further. On the way, perform a few checks of the environmental conditions.
Objectives

Analyze: Radiation 03 Worth: $10k Priority: Major Measure the radiation levels inside of the third crater.
Analyze: Atmosphere 01 Worth: $30k Priority: Major Perform a periodic measurement of the atmospheric conditions.
Analyze: Atmosphere 02 Worth: $30k Priority: Major Perform a periodic measurement of the atmospheric conditions.
Analyze: Atmosphere 03 Worth: $30k Priority: Major Perform a periodic measurement of the atmospheric conditions.
