About this work
The curblike ridge in this view is part of a series of crisscrossing features that form what's called a boxwork pattern. NASA's Curiosity Mars rover captured the image with its Mast Camera, or Mastcam, on May 16, 2025, the 4,541st Martian day, or sol, of the mission. This panorama was stitched together from 15 individual images. The color in these images has been adjusted to match the lighting conditions as the human eye would see them on Earth.
