Sol 1127: Mast-Mounted Navigation Camera, Cylindrical Perspective

NASA's Mars rover Curiosity took 19 image pairs in Gale Crater using its mast-mounted Navigation Camera (Navcam) to create this mosaic. The seam-corrected mosaic provides a 360-degree cylindrical perspective projection panorama of the Martian surface suitable for stereo viewing, centered at 356 degrees azimuth (measured clockwise from north). This anaglyph must be viewed with red/blue glasses (red over left eye).  Curiosity took the images on October 09, 2015, Sols 1128-1127 of the Mars Science Laboratory mission at drive 676, site number 50. The local mean solar time for the image exposures was from 3 PM to 4 PM. Each Navcam image has a 45-degree field of view. CREDIT: NASA/JPL-Caltech
