Layers of Cape Verde in Victoria Crater

September 28, 2006 - This view of Victoria crater is looking north from Duck Bay towards the dramatic promontory called Cape Verde. The dramatic cliff of layered rocks is about 50 meters (about 165 feet) away from the rover and is about 6 meters (about 20 feet) tall. The taller promontory beyond that is about 100 meters (about 325 feet) away, and the vista beyond that extends away for more than 400 meters (about 1300 feet) into the distance. This is an approximately true color rendering of images taken by the panoramic camera (Pancam) on the Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity during the rover's 952nd sol, or Martian day, (September 28, 2006) using the camera's 750-nanometer, 530-nanometer and 430-nanometer filters
