"Greenish" Land & Sky around and above Opportunity (1) - Sol 663
|
Original caption:"This is an Opportunity Pan-Cam's Erebus Rim panorama, acquired on Soles 652 to 663 (Nov. 23 to Dec. 5, 2005 ), as NASA's MER Opportunity was exploring sand dunes and outcrop rocks in Meridiani Planum. The panorama originally consisted of 635 separate images in 4 different PanCam filters, and covers 360° of terrain around the Rover and the full Rover Deck. Since the time that this panorama was acquired, and while engineers have been diagnosing and testing Opportunity's RA, the panorama has been expanded to include more than 1.300 images of this terrain through all of the PanCam multispectral filters. This is the largest panorama acquired by either Rover during the Mission.
The panorama shown here is an approximate true-color rendering using PanCam's 750-, 530- and 430 nnmt filters. It is presented here as a cylindrical projection. Image-to-image seams have been eliminated from the Sky portion of the mosaic to better simulate the vista a person standing on Mars would see".
