Late Afternoon on Mars
Image Credit: NASA, JPL-Caltech, Marco Di Lorenzo
Explanation: Shadows grow long near sunset in this wide panoramic view from the Curiosity rover on Mars. Made with Curiosity's navcam, the scene covers about 200 degrees from north through east to south, stitched together from frames taken by the Mars rover on December 16. Curiosity is perched on top of a plateau on Western Butte. The distant northern rim of Gale crater is visible along the left. Near center is Central Butte, already visited by Curiosity. On the right, the shadow of the rover seems to stretch toward the base of Aeolis Mons , a future destination. The monochrome navcam frames have been colorized to approximate the colors of the late martian afternoon.
火星的傍晚
在這幅由好奇號火星探測車拍攝的全景照片中，呈現(xiàn)出日落時影子逐漸變長的好奇號。它拍攝于12月16日，由許多照片組合而成，它覆蓋了從北到南大約200度的天區(qū)。圖像左側可以看到遙遠的蓋爾環(huán)形山，圖像中心的是中央山丘，那里已被好奇號造訪過了，圖像右側可見探測車的陰影似乎朝著未來目的地——夏普山的山腳延伸。這幅單色照片經(jīng)過著色處理，更接近火星傍晚時的顏色。
