This mosaic was assembled in 2018 from dozens of images taken by the Mast Camera (Mastcam) on NASA’s Curiosity rover. In the image, you’re looking uphill at Mount Sharp, which is in the middle of Gale Crater on Mars. The scene has been white-balanced so the colors of the rock materials resemble how they would appear under daytime lighting conditions on Earth.
