Making Tracks on Mars
This image shows the tracks left by
NASA's Curiosity rover on Aug. 22, 2012, as it completed its first test drive
on Mars. The rover went forward 15 feet (4.5 meters), rotated 120 degrees and
then reversed 8.2 feet (2.5 meters). Curiosity is now 20 feet (6 meters) from
its landing site, named Bradbury Landing.
This image was taken by a front
Hazard-Avoidance camera, which has a fisheye lens.
