NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity used its navigation camera to
take the images combined into this full-circle view of the rover's
surroundings on the 1,664th Martian day, or sol, of Opportunity's surface
mission (September 28, 2008). Opportunity had driven 152.8 meters (501
feet) southward on the preceding sol, reaching this location on the west
side of Victoria Crater. Maps of the traverse to this point are at
http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/tm-opportunity/opportunity-sol1664.html.
Rover tracks from the Sol 1663 drive extend northward in the image. For
scale, the two parallel tracks are about 1 meter (39 inches) apart. To the
right of center, Victoria Crater is visible from the north-northeast to
the east-southeast. The far right and left edges of the image are to the
south.
Opportunity drove away from this location on Sol 1666 (September 30,
2008), with a drive of 129.9 meters (426 feet) further southward.
This view is presented as a cylindrical projection with geometric seam
correction.
