Sol 3322: Right Navigation Camera, Cylindrical Projection

NASA's Mars rover Curiosity took 18 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 359 degrees azimuth (measured clockwise from north). Curiosity took the images on December 11, 2021, Sol 3322 of the Mars Science Laboratory mission at drive 0, site number 92. The local mean solar time for the image exposures was 3 PM. Each Navcam image has a 45 degree field of view. CREDIT: NASA/JPL-Caltech
