Mars 360: NASA's Mars Curiosity Rover - Sol 3 (360video 8K)

NASA's Mars Curiosity Rover Martian Solar Day 3: The first color panorama of Mars

The images for panorama obtained by the rover's 34-millimeter Mast Camera. The mosaic, which stretches about 30,000 pixels width, includes 140 images taken on Sol 3 (August 8, 2012).

Another good day on Mars: MSL's remote sensing mast was successfully deployed, and a Mastcam panorama acquired.

My tactical operations shifts have been exciting, and I've enjoyed working with the talented and knowledgeable engineers and scientist on the tactical team. But I'm also looking forward to taking a break for a few days and sleeping past 4:30 in the morning!
