Sol 3606: Right Navigation Camera, Cylindrical Projection

NASA's Mars rover Curiosity took 19 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 221 degrees azimuth (measured clockwise from north). Curiosity took the images on September 28, 2022, Sol 3606 of the Mars Science Laboratory mission at drive 1716, site number 97. The local mean solar time for the image exposures was 1 PM. Each Navcam image has a 45 degree field of view. CREDIT: NASA/JPL-Caltech
