Sol 1067: Left Navigation Camera, Cylindrical Projection

NASA's Mars rover Curiosity took 11 images in Gale Crater using its mast-mounted Left Navigation Camera (Navcam) to create this mosaic. The seam-corrected mosaic provides a 192-degree cylindrical projection panorama of the Martian surface centered at 212 degrees azimuth (measured clockwise from north). Curiosity took the images on August 08, 2015, Sol 1067 of the Mars Science Laboratory mission at drive 0, site number 49. The local mean solar time for the image exposures was from 2 PM to 3 PM. Each Navcam image has a 45 degree field of view. CREDIT: NASA/JPL-Caltech
