The View toward Husband Hill on Mars
This Martian vista is part of a panoramic view taken by the robotic Spirit rover. Spirit was on McCool Hill during the Martian winter, keeping its solar panels pointed toward the Sun. The panorama involved over 800 exposures and helped keep the rover busy during the energy-draining winter.
