💌 A new postcard from Mars It’s glorious, it's dusty, and we love it! This high-definition panoramic image from NASA Perseverance's Mastcam-Z reveals the rim of Jezero Crater and cliff face of an ancient river delta in the distance. The panorama was stitched together from 142 individual images taken on Sol 3, the third Martian day of the mission (Feb. 21, 2021). 🗓️ REMINDER: Join us tomorrow, Thurs., Feb 25 for a live Q&A discussion on NASA.TV with the camera team. They will discuss the images captured, technology, and more beginning at 4:00pm ET! 🔴 While you're here, do you remember how much longer a Martian sol is to an Earth Day?
