Looks like the drive took Perseverance to the Southeast, but at this stage I do not think it reached the full distance to the ‘look out point’…

More details will be added as I get the drive details which have not been issued yet by JPL

Raw image, hence the green hue…

A roughly processed version of the Sol 46 Selfie, there will be many different versions in the coming days… 🙂

I thought this was a rendering at first glance, brilliant photo!

59 frames + 2 looking at the camera so images processors had a choice which pose to use, but I felt this one worked for me, I cropped away over 10 frames as they were distorted by correcting the horizon, but I think it gets the story across

Fantastic!

Rafael Navarro Mountain

NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover used its Mastcam to take an image of this hill, nicknamed “Rafael Navarro Mountain” after Rafael Navarro-González, an astrobiologist who worked on the mission until he passed away January 26, 2021. He was a member of the team working with Curiosity’s Sample Analysis at Mars, or SAM, instrument.

Curiosity performs check-up on wheels with MAHLI (Mars Hand Lens Imager)

TransientSignal
20 hours ago

Over the weekend while everyone was distracted by the excited news from Curiosity’s younger siblings (myself included!), Curiosity performed a fairly extensive check-up on 4 of its 6 wheels using the MAHLI instrument. Each of the 4 wheels were photographed 4 times, each time rolling the wheel a bit to image the entire wheel. 2 of the wheels photographed have extensive damage while the other two only have dents and a few small punctures.

You can view all 16 images at the raw image site, filtered for MAHLI images taken on Sol 3079 or if you prefer in an imgur gallery here.

Image details:
