A Panorama of Mars from Larrys Lookout
Explanation:
Scroll right to see a breathtaking panorama of Mars from Larry's Lookout.
The lookout occurs near the peak of
Husband Hill in the
Columbia Hills.
The summit of
Husband Hill is visible 200 meters in the distance
toward the center of the 360-degree near-true-color picture.
The
robot rover Spirit took images that compose the
above mosaic over four
Martian days.
After taking the image sequence,
Spirit carefully
picked its way to toward Husband Hill's summit.
On the far right, near
distant rover tracks,
is a recently investigated area dubbed
Paso Robles that was found to contain high amounts of
sulfur.
