Back Roads

         The Opportunity rover acquired this mosaic on Sol 173 (July 19, 2004) using Pancam's 753 nm, 535 nm, and 432 nm filters. The view shows a series of holes drilled by the Rock Abrasion Tool as the rover moved down layers of exposed rock at Endurance Crater. Two versions are offered at full resolution: an approximate true color mosaic, and a false color stretch to bring out subtle color differences in the scene.
