Home This 360-degree panorama was acquired on Sept. 4, 2016, by the Mast Camera on NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover while the rover was in a scenic area called “Murray Buttes” on lower Mount Sharp. The flat-topped mesa near the center of the scene rises to about 39 feet above the surrounding plain.

This September 2016 self-portrait of NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover shows the vehicle at the “Quela” drilling location in the scenic “Murray Buttes” area on lower Mount Sharp. The panorama was stitched together from multiple images taken by the MAHLI camera at the end of the rover’s arm. (NASA/JPL-Caltech/MSSS)
The two prominent mesas in this Aug. 18, 2016, view of Mars’ “Murray Buttes” region from the Curiosity Mars rover’s Mastcam are about 260 feet (about 80 meters) apart. The one on the right is about 33 feet high, and its top is about 270 feet from the rover’s position when the images were taken. (NASA/JPL-Caltech/MSSS)
