Layers at Payson outcrop - Sol 749
|
Caption originale:"The stack of fine layers exposed at a ledge called Payson, on the western edge of Erebus Crater in Mars' Meridiani Planum Region, shows a diverse range of primary and secondary sedimentary textures formed billions of years ago. These structures likely result from an interplay between windblown and water-involved processes.
The PanCam on NASA's MER Opportunity acquired the exposures for this image on Spirit's 749th Sol (Feb. 10, 2006). This view is an approximately true-color rendering mathematically generated from separate images taken through all of the left PanCam's 432- to 753-nnmt filters".
