Sol 3158: Right Navigation Camera, Cylindrical Projection

NASA's Mars rover Curiosity took 15 images in Gale Crater using its mast-mounted Right Navigation Camera (Navcam) to create this mosaic. The seam-corrected mosaic provides a 340-degree cylindrical projection panorama of the Martian surface centered at 290 degrees azimuth (measured clockwise from north). Curiosity took the images on June 25, 2021, Sol 3158 of the Mars Science Laboratory mission at drive 1466, site number 89. 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
