Opportunity had completed a drive of 124 meters (407 feet) across the rippled flatland of the Meridiani Planum region on the previous sol, but did not drive on this sol. This location is catalogued as Opportunity's site 48. This three-dimensional view is presented as a cylindrical-perspective projection with geometric and brightness seam correction.

Opportunity drove 95 meters (312 feet) toward "Vostok Crater" that sol before taking the images. The drive was done in four steps: three "blind-drive" segments followed by a segment using the rover's autonomous navigation. This location is catalogued as Opportunity's site 49. This three-dimensional view is presented in a cylindrical-perspective projection with geometric seam correction.

Opportunity drove 35 meters (115 feet) that sol and reached the edge of "Vostok Crater" before taking the images. Sand has buried much of the crater. This location is catalogued as Opportunity's site 50. The three-dimensional view is presented in a cylindrical-perspective projection with geometric seam correction. Two angular marks in the right half of the image are artifacts of image-compression data loss.

Opportunity had driven 64 meters (209 feet) on sol 381 to arrive at this location close to a small crater dubbed "Alvin." The location is catalogued as Opportunity's Site 43. This stereo view is presented in a cylindrical-perspective projection with with geometric seam correction.

Opportunity rolled 177.5 meters (582 feet) across the plain of Meridiani on that sol. It used its navigation camera after the drive to take the images that are combined into this stereo mosaic anaglyph. The view is presented in a cylindrical-perspective projection with geometric seam correction.

Opportunity had driven about 73 meters (240 feet) and reached the eastern edge of a small crater dubbed "Naturaliste," seen in the right foreground. This stereo view is presented in a cylindrical-perspective projection with geometric and brightness seam correction. Image credit: NASA/JPL Browse Image | Medium Image (773 kB) | Large (6.5 MB) 01-Feb-2005     Opportunity's View After Sol 321 Drive (3-D) NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity was on its way from "Endurance Crater" toward the spacecraft's jettisoned heat shield when the navigation camera took the images combined into this stereo, 360-degree panorama. Opportunity drove 60 meters (197 feet) on its 321st martian day, or sol (Dec. 18, 2004). These images were taken later that sol and on the following sol. The rover had spent 181 sols inside the crater. This view is presented in a cylindrical-perspective projection without seam correction.
