Beagle Crater is a crater on Mars in Meridiani Planum currently being explored by the Opportunity rover. It was located by the rover in images taken on Sol 855 (June 20, 2006), 310 m (1,107 ft) away. Exaggeration maps are made to pick out features in topography. Farther in the distance is the much larger Victoria Crater.
