Curiosity Rover's Location for Sol 465

This map shows the route driven by NASA's Mars rover Curiosity through the 465 Martian day, or sol, of the rover's mission on Mars (November 27, 2013).

This map shows the route driven by NASA's Mars rover Curiosity through the 465 Martian day, or sol, of the rover's mission on Mars (November 27, 2013).

Numbering of the dots along the line indicate the sol number of each drive. North is up. From Sol 456 to Sol 465, Curiosity had driven a straight line distance of about 120.11 feet (36.61 meters).

The base image from the map is from the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment Camera (HiRISE) in NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter.

This black-and-white image shows a large crater and small crater on the surface of Mars in three views, in which the craters are in slightly different positions relative to the middle of each of the three frames. It simulates what the camera might see as it moved horizontally through the atmosphere during descent. A sunflower-petal-like blanket of ejected rocks and soil surround the dark hole of the bright rimmed crater.
