The seam-corrected mosaic provides a 360-degree cylindrical projection panorama of the Martian surface centered at 178 degrees azimuth (measured clockwise from north). Curiosity took the images on July 09, 2025, Sol 4594 of the Mars Science Laboratory mission at drive 1434, site number 117. The local mean solar time for the image exposures was from 2 PM to 4 PM. Each Navcam image has a 45 degree field of view. The post Sol 4594: Right Navigation Camera, Cylindrical Projection appeared first on NASA Science.
