Mount Sharp rock formations, Mars C014 / 4936
Mount Sharp rock formations, as imaged by NASAs Curiosity rover on Mars. This rover, part of the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) mission, landed in the Gale Crater on 6 August 2012. Mount Sharps geology will be investigated by the rover as one of its science destinations. The colour here has been enhanced to aid analysis of the landscape as it would appear under the lighting conditions found on Earth. The rounded mound at centre is about 300 metres across and 100 metres high. This image is part of a larger one obtained on 23 August 2012 by the 100mm Mast Camera.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the breathtaking rock formations of Mount Sharp on Mars, as captured by NASA's Curiosity rover. Launched as part of the Mars Science Laboratory mission, this remarkable rover touched down in Gale Crater on August 6th, 2012. Mount Sharp's geological wonders have become one of the primary focuses for exploration and research during its Martian journey. In order to aid analysis under Earth-like lighting conditions, the colors in this image have been enhanced. The prominent rounded mound at the center spans an impressive 300 meters across and stands approximately 100 meters tall. This mesmerizing snapshot forms a fraction of a larger image obtained on August 23rd, 2012 using the Mast Camera with a focal length of 100mm. The photograph unveils intricate details within Mount Sharp's sedimentary rock layers while showcasing unique buttes and mesas scattered across its landscape. As we delve into planetary science in the twenty-first century, this image serves as a testament to our relentless pursuit of knowledge about our neighboring celestial bodies. With every pixel meticulously captured by Curiosity's Mastcam, we are transported millions of miles away from home to witness firsthand the awe-inspiring beauty that lies beyond our blue planet. Let us marvel at this extraordinary vista and continue to support NASA's groundbreaking missions that unravel mysteries hidden within our solar system.
