Everest Panorama from Mars
The robotic Spirit rover captured this 360-degree panorama from the top of a Martian hill in 2005. Spirit rolled around Mars from 2004 to 2009, and this image mosaic was created from photos taken over three days. The panorama provides a human-eye-resolution view of the Martian landscape, showing plains and distant hills.
