This is the right-eye view of a stereo pair showing the terrain surrounding NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity on the rover's 171st sol on Mars (July 17, 2004). It was assembled from images taken by the rover's navigation camera at a position referred to as "site 33." Opportunity had driven 11 meters (36 feet) into "Endurance Crater." The 360-degree view is a cylindrical-perspective projection with geometrical seam correction.
See PIA06702 for 3-D view and PIA06703 for left eye view of this right eye cylindrical-perspective projection.
