Sol 2904: Right Navigation Camera, Cylindrical Projection

NASA's Mars rover Curiosity took 21 images in Gale Crater using its mast-mounted Right Navigation Camera (Navcam) to create this mosaic. The seam-corrected mosaic provides a 360-degree cylindrical projection panorama of the Martian surface centered at 159 degrees azimuth (measured clockwise from north). Curiosity took the images on October 07, 2020, Sol 2904 of the Mars Science Laboratory mission at drive 2188, site number 82. The local mean solar time for the image exposures was 5 PM. Each Navcam image has a 45 degree field of view. CREDIT: NASA/JPL-Caltech
