Sol 3183: 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 183 degrees azimuth (measured clockwise from north). Curiosity took the images on July 21, 2021, Sol 3183 of the Mars Science Laboratory mission at drive 2034, 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
