Curiosity Views Boxwork Patterns at a Distance

NASA's Curiosity Mars rover viewed this expanse while looking out across a region filled with low ridges known as boxwork patterns. The panorama is stitched together from 23 individual images the rover's Mast Camera, or Mastcam, captured on May 22, 2025 (the 4,536th day, or sol, of the mission). The color in these images has been adjusted to match the lighting conditions as the human eye would see them on Earth. When viewed from space, the boxwork patterns look a bit like spiderwebs.
