Image description: This is one of the first images taken by NASA’s Curiosity rover, which landed on Mars the evening of Aug. 5 PDT (morning of Aug. 6 EDT). It was taken through a “fisheye” wide-angle lens. As planned, the rover’s early images are lower resolution. Larger color images from other cameras are expected later in the week.
