Sol 3159: Right Navigation Camera, Cylindrical Projection

NASA's Mars rover Curiosity took 28 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 251 degrees azimuth (measured clockwise from north). Curiosity took the images on June 26, 2021, Sols 3159-3158 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
