Just to add, while a landing site inside a newly formed crater may not be the best place to hunt for tektites, perhaps Martian tektites will go a long way to further supporting -if not by Spirit or Opportunity- someday) that Earth tektites are cased by meteoritical impacts...and perhaps tektites there are more common than meteorites per se. Something additional, the rovers can be on the look out for...(how well can glass be interpreted with Spirit instruments?)

And tektites should be very common on Mars...it would probably be an excellent place for a meteorite hunter to make a tektite collection. Perhaps red like Sahara Glasses are common.
