Sol 3011: Right Navigation Camera, Cylindrical Projection

NASA's Mars rover Curiosity took 17 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 110 degrees azimuth (measured clockwise from north). Curiosity took the images on January 25, 2021, Sol 3011 of the Mars Science Laboratory mission at drive 1486, site number 85. The local mean solar time for the image exposures was 3 PM. Each Navcam image has a 45 degree field of view. CREDIT: NASA/JPL-Caltech
