A grayscale panorama of the Martian surface shows a wide field of flat terrain dotted with flat, angular, medium-sized rocks, all in dark gray, stretching into the distance where three hills rise from the ground, with the ones at left and center being higher and wider than the one on the right. Features on the horizon are silhouetted by a gray sky beyond. A portion of the Curiosity rover and two of its wheels are visible at the bottom right corner of the frame; more of the rover is visible at the bottom and lower left corner of the image.

A grayscale panorama of the Martian surface shows a wide field of flat terrain dotted with flat, angular, medium-sized rocks, all in dark gray, stretching into the distance where a small hill rises from the ground. Features on the horizon are silhouetted by a bright, gray sky beyond, and what looks like a fog bank rests on the horizon beyond the hill, stretching horizontally about halfway up the visible sky. A portion of the top deck of the Curiosity rover and two of its wheels are visible at the right side and bottom of the frame; more of the rover is visible at the bottom left and lower left corner of the image.

Mars 2020: Perseverance Rover

NASA’s Perseverance Mars rover took this selfie on July 23, 2024, the 1,218th Martian day, or sol, of the mission. To the left of the rover near the center of the image is the arrowhead-shaped rock nicknamed “Cheyava Falls,” which has features that may bear on the question of whether Mars was home to microscopic life in the distant past. The small dark hole in the rock is where Perseverance took a core sample, which is now in a sample tube stored in the rover’s belly. The white patch to the right of the hole is where the rover used an abrasion tool to clear away the top surface, allowing science instruments to study the rock’s composition.
