PIA05849: Approaching 'Endurance' (3-D)


Approaching ‘Endurance’ (3-D)

Caption:

This three-dimensional, cylindrical-perspective projection was constructed from images taken by the Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity's navigation camera on the rover's 93rd sol on Mars. The camera acquired the images at approximately 12:27 Local Solar Time, or around 8:22 AM Pacific Daylight Time on April 28, 2004. On that sol, Opportunity sat about 75 meters (246 feet) away from the rim of "Endurance Crater."

See PIA05850 for left eye view and PIA05851 for right eye view of this 3-D cylindrical-perspective projection.
