Explore Mars’ Gediz Vallis Channel With NASA’s Curiosity Rover (360 View)
Ғылым және технология
Drag your mouse or move your phone to look around within this 360-degree panorama provided by NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover. This view was captured at Gediz Vallis channel, a feature that formed billions of years ago during one of the last wet periods seen on this part of the Red Planet.
Curiosity captured this vista using the left black-and-white navigation camera mounted on its mast, or “head,” on Feb. 1, 2024, the 4,084th Martian day, or sol, of the mission. The panorama is made up of 10 images that were stitched together after being sent back to Earth.
Gediz Vallis channel was one of the last features to form on the 3-mile-tall (5-kilometer-tall) Mount Sharp, the base of which Curiosity has been ascending since 2014. The channel is filled with piles of boulders and other debris that may have been brought here by debris flows (rapid, wet landslides) or dry avalanches. Also visible in the image is the top of Curiosity’s including ports where the rover drops powderized rock samples into instruments within its belly; the robotic arm and its drill are stowed at the right.

This 360 is astonishing!!! Super job JPL!!! 👍
Curiosity, I have seen you on Earth, at JPL clean room!
12 years, 30 kilometers and still rocking 🦾
Looking around is one helluva gymnastics when seated 😊 Thanks JPL I like it
Awesome 🎉
Brave little Rover 🥰
Thanks JPL. Really cool.
The Martian rovers are some of the best investments Earth (NASA) has ever produced. Thank you for the continued inspiration to learn.
That surface looks quite challenging
This was very interesting. Wish there were more uploads like this, and not just from Curiosity, but the other space probes. Kinda like 'Street View' but on other planets. Thanks for sharing.
Excellent display from the little lander that could.
wow ! what a view it really puts things in perspective! maybe soon someone will be sitting on that little rock sticking out up the hill enjoying the view!😁😁😁
Amazing 😮
Cool!
Great curiosity
It is scarcely imaginable a whole planet that looks so similar to earth is so barren and devoid of any life.
WOW
Wait, the video rotate with mouse !!!
Yes the 360 easily works with the video on pause or playing as well. It works as well by moving the phone around physically OR just using your finger on the screen to rotate it... *sigh* I miss my Samsung Galaxy Gear VR Headset. I still have it but it only works on the S6, S7, and I believe the S8 and S9 series phones (Samsung Galaxy, not iPhones...).. I need to get some kind of Oculus headset period.. I miss VR!
-360 view like this are useful for planetariums as well, but only so long as the image extends to the zenith. =)
GOTTA GET TO MARS! NYAH NYAH! 😂 (seriously though, super cool. I love this. I'm sending it to my friends.)
@NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory: Shows it has a built in radiation detector so how much has it been detecting?
Hello! When can we have a very realistic exploration game that controls the Rover in already mapped areas of the surface of Mars?
i think nasa should remove the spherical distortion on images.
😮
The wheels still look like new nice !
One day far in a imaginary future there will be martian citys named after the first rovers on Mars.
For a brief, beautiful moment, I get to be a rover. Thank you
hey can you name anywhere on mars my name ....neville pass!😁😁😁
Imagine believing this was actually taken at Mars. 🤣
Looks like earth
pls remove the music. lets hear actual noise there, tq

It looks like the Perseverance Rover had microphones to record audio from the descent onto the surface, but I couldn't find anything about Curiosity having microphones.
🤣
Blessings of the Meatball be upon you. 🖖😎👍
Donde estoy
I'm.ñjjjj
Mohammed god not believe nasa information😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm really disappointed NASA hasn't taken the time to have this vehicle at least detailed and washed. Come on NASA. You CAN do better.
Distorted sound down here!
