Sol 3217: Right Navigation Camera, Cylindrical Projection

NASA's Mars rover Curiosity took 25 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 313 degrees azimuth (measured clockwise from north). Curiosity took the images on August 25, 2021, Sol 3217 of the Mars Science Laboratory mission at drive 0, site number 91. The local mean solar time for the image exposures was from 3 PM to 5 PM. Each Navcam image has a 45 degree field of view. CREDIT: NASA/JPL-Caltech
