Dunes

         This mosaic was acquired by the Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity on Sol 2727 (September 25, 2011).  During the exploration around Endeavour Crater, periodically images of dunes inside the crater are acquired with the intent of detecting changes brought about by wind. Pancam's 753nm, 535nm, and 482nm filters were used in making this mosaic.  Two versions are provided at full resolution: an approximate true color rendering, and a false color rendering which enhances the subtle color differences in the scene.
