Ingress Survey Left

        This mosaic was acquired by the Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity on Sol 1294 (September 14, 2007). The image shows the ground off the left side of the rover as Opportunity drove into Victoria Crater. Part of the Low Gain (LGA) and High Gain Antennas (HGA) can be seen protruding up from the rover deck. The visible seam between the frames (more obvious in the false color version) is caused by dust buildup on Pancam's front sapphire window.  Pancam's 753nm, 535nm, and 432nm filters were used in this mosaic.  Three versions are available below at full resolution: an approximate true color rendering, a false color stretch to enhance the subtle color differences in the scene, and a stereo anaglyph to simulate the scene in 3D when viewed through red-blue glasses.
