Perseverance’s View of 'Turquoise Bay'
La vista de Perseverance de 'Bahía Turquesa'
The excerpt says NASA’s Perseverance Mars rover used its Mastcam-Z camera to capture a 360-degree natural-color panorama of a geologic area called “Turquoise Bay” in the “Margin Unit.” According to the excerpt, 818 images were combined to make the panorama; they were taken between Oct. 5 and Oct. 16, 2023 (the mission’s 933rd to 944th Martian days, or sols). The source also states that Figure A is an enhanced-color version where color bands were processed to improve visual contrast. The excerpt notes that NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (managed for the agency by Caltech in Pasadena, California) built and manages the rover operations, while Arizona State University leads Mastcam-Z operations with named collaborators.
