Self-portrait of Curiosity rover in Gale Crater on the surface of Mars
On Sol 84 (Oct. 31, 2012), the Curiosity rover used the Mars Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI) to capture the set of thumbnail images stitched together to create this full-color self-portrait.
This self-portrait documents the state of the rover and allows mission engineers to track changes over time, such as dust accumulation and wheel wear. Due to its location on the end of the robotic arm, only MAHLI is able to image some parts of the rover, including port-side wheels.
The mosaic shows the rover at Rocknest, the spot in Gale Crater where the missions first scoop sampling took place. Scoop scars can be seen in the regolith in front of the rover. A portion of Mount Sharp appears on the right side. Mountains in the background to the left are the northern wall of Gale Crater

EDITORS COMMENTS
This self-portrait of the Curiosity rover in Gale Crater on Mars offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the world beyond our own. Taken on Sol 84 (Oct. 31,2012), this full-color image was created by stitching together a set of thumbnail images captured by the Mars Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI). Serving as both a documentation of the rover's current state and a means for mission engineers to monitor changes over time, this self-portrait reveals fascinating details such as dust accumulation and wheel wear. Positioned at the end of its robotic arm, MAHLI provides unique perspectives that allow us to see parts of the rover otherwise hidden from view, including its port-side wheels. The mosaic showcases Curiosity at Rocknest, where it conducted its first scoop sampling in Gale Crater. Notably, visible scoop scars can be observed in the regolith just ahead of the rover. The breathtaking landscape surrounding Curiosity is equally awe-inspiring. Mount Sharp graces the right side of the image while mountains along Gale Crater's northern wall adorn its left side. This photograph serves as a testament to humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge and exploration beyond Earth's boundaries. As we continue to study and analyze these remarkable images, we gain invaluable insights into Martian terrain, landforms, and geological features. With each new discovery made possible by technological advancements like Curiosity's mechanical arm and instruments like MAHLI, we inch closer towards unraveling mysteries about our neighboring planet and paving the way for future space exploration endeavors.
