14 DAY TRIAL // Traditional red-blue 3D glasses are just the thing you need to fully appreciate the new Martian panorama experts at the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Pasadena, California, pieced together from data relayed back by the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) rover Curiosity.
Collected on sols (Martian days) 2 and 12 of the mission (August 8 and August 18), from different positions, the two images provide a 360-degree view of the Red Planet, including the rover's ultimate destination, Mount Sharp.
The photographs were snapped using the left and right eyes of the Navigation camera (NavCam) instrument. JPL also released the two images separately, so that you may create your own 3D view of Curiosity's current location.
At this time, the rover is heading towards Glenelg, its first science target, located around 400 meters (1,300+ feet) from Bradbury Landing, where it touched down on Mars.
