Curiosity's Billion Pixel Panorama - Gamma Version: This image is full-circle mosaic of nearly 900 images taken by NASA's Curiosity Mars rover.
The view is centered toward the south, with north at both ends. It shows Curiosity at the "Rocknest" site where the rover scooped up samples of windblown dust and sand. Curiosity used three cameras to take the component images on several different days between Oct. 5 and Nov. 16, 2012.
