  2. NASA’s Curiosity Takes Close Look at Rock That Got Stuck on Drill

    This mosaic is made up of eight images stitched together. The color has been approximately white-balanced to resemble how the scene would appear under daytime lighting conditions on Earth.

  3. NASA’s Curiosity Rover Frees Its Drill From a Rock

    This series of images shows Mars rover Curiosity as it got a rock stuck to the drill on the end of its robotic arm and, after waving the arm and running the drill a few times, finally detached the rock.

  5. Curiosity's workspace after a bump (short drive) on August 21, 2023 / sol 3924. This mosaic was assembled from 6 overlapping Bayer reconstructed L-MastCam images. It covers an area about 2 meters (~6 feet) across. The mosaic features some small boulders from the Gediz Vallis ridge. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/MSSS/fredk

  6. Mars Rocks!
    These are from Gale crater, snapped by Curiosity rover on August 18, 2023 (Sol 3921) using its 100mm mast camera. Each of the processed mosaics are assembled from overlapping Bayer reconstructed frames and document a new region that is thought to contain some materials that have been washed down from Gediz Vallis.
