  3. Curiosity rover's current workspace imaged on Sol 3887 (July 14, 2023). A processed mosaic of six overlapping Bayer reconstructed left-side MastCam frames covers an area about 2 meters (~6 feet) across. It shows details within the workspace accessible to the instruments and tools on the rover's two meter-long robotic arm. A 50 centimeter scalebar has been added (~20 inches).
