A huge 360-degree panoramic image captured by Perseverance, which successfully landed on Mars on February 18, 2021, has been released. This panoramic image was created by synthesizing 142 images taken on February 21 using the zoomable camera “Mastcam-Z” installed in Perseverance. The original is a huge image with 36,952 x 11,570 pixels.
This is a close-up of a distant rock with a scale bar. You can see that the details of the surface of Mars are captured.
