Sol 3815: Right Navigation Camera, Cylindrical Projection

NASA's Mars rover Curiosity took 12 images in Gale Crater using its mast-mounted Right Navigation Camera (Navcam) to create this mosaic. The seam-corrected mosaic provides a 220-degree cylindrical projection panorama of the Martian surface centered at 199 degrees azimuth (measured clockwise from north). Curiosity took the images on May 01, 2023, Sol 3815 of the Mars Science Laboratory mission at drive 774, site number 101. The local mean solar time for the image exposures was from 1 PM to 2 PM. Each Navcam image has a 45 degree field of view. CREDIT: NASA/JPL-Caltech
