Sol 3156: Right Navigation Camera, Cylindrical Projection

NASA's Mars rover Curiosity took 23 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 226 degrees azimuth (measured clockwise from north). Curiosity took the images on June 23, 2021, Sol 3156 of the Mars Science Laboratory mission at drive 1082, site number 89. The local mean solar time for the image exposures was 4 PM. Each Navcam image has a 45 degree field of view. CREDIT: NASA/JPL-Caltech
