NASA's Mars rover Curiosity took 33 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 236 degrees azimuth (measured clockwise from north). Curiosity took the images on August 05, 2025, Sols 4620-4618 of the Mars Science Laboratory mission at drive 198, site number 118. The local mean solar time for the image exposures was from 8 AM to 4 PM. Each Navcam image has a 45 degree field of view.
