Fram crater on Sol 84, 24 April 2004

Fram is an impact crater in Meridiani Planum, on Mars. It was visited by the rover Opportunity (MER-B) on Sol 84, April 24, 2004.

Fram spans about 8 metres (26 feet) in diameter. Opportunity paused beside it while travelling from the rover's landing site toward a larger crater, Endurance. Fram is located about 450 metres (0.3 miles) east of the crater Eagle and around 250 metres (820 feet) west of Endurance.

It is named after the famous Norwegian polar exploration vessel the Fram.
