Horizon Strip

        The Opportunity rover took this mosaic on sol 21 (February 14, 2004). The heatshield and parachute are visible in the center frame. The field of view spans approximately 150°. Two versions are available in full resolution: an approximate true color image made from Pancam's 432-nm, 535-nm and 753-nm filters, and a false color version which has been stretched to bring out the subtle color differences in the scene.
