Martian Memories

Why is Methane Seeping on Mars?

The most surprising revelation from NASA’s Curiosity Mars Rover — that methane is seeping from the surface of Gale Crater — has scientists scratching their heads.

wow what a fascinating Martian sight, wish there were a dual stereo pair of images to see this one in 3D!

This image was taken by the Left Navigation Camera onboard NASA's Mars rover Curiosity on Sol 4155 (2024-04-14).

Absolutely fascinating Stereo3D view of this Martian landscape.

Many thanks to @PaulHammond51 for finding the right-eye view from the rover's R-Nav Cam.

To get the Stereo3D effect, just let your eyes' line of sight be parallel (not cross-eyed) with left eye in front of left image and right eye in front of right image.

There are some days on where has more geology to look at in to see than we have time for dedicated imaging. Sol 3812 (April 26, 2023) was one of those days. Rather than miss out, we prioritized a mosaic with the wide-angle camera on to capture a ~100 degree swath of landscape. The results were lovely!
