The imaging team of NASA’s Perseverance Mars rover has taken advantage of clear skies on the red planet to capture one of the sharpest panoramas of its mission so far. Visible in the mosaic, which was stitched together from 96 images taken at a location the science team calls “Falbreen,” are a rock that appears to lie on top of a sand ripple, a boundary line between two geologic units, and hills as distant as 40 miles (65 kilometers) away. The enhanced-color version shows the Martian sky to be remarkably clear and deceptively blue, while in the natural-color version, it’s reddish.
“Our bold push for human space exploration will send astronauts back to the moon,” said Sean Duffy, acting NASA administrator. “Stunning vistas like that of Falbreen, captured by our Perseverance rover, are just a glimpse of what we’ll soon witness with our own eyes. NASA’s groundbreaking missions, starting with Artemis, will propel our unstoppable journey to take human space exploration to the Martian surface. NASA is continuing to get bolder and stronger.”
The rover’s Mastcam-Z instrument captured the images on May 26, 2025, the 1,516th Martian day, or sol, of Perseverance’s mission, which began in February 2021 on the floor of Jezero Crater. Perseverance reached the top of the crater rim late last year.
Why are u posting false news? Did u even do ur research? This isnt mars. Not even close.
The location is Black Rock Summit, Nevada
More specifically, your image appears to be from the NASA/JPL FIDO Mars-rover field trials at Black Rock Summit, in the Great Basin of Nevada.
This is a much better match because the things you blacked out are apparently the giveaway: rover/lander hardware in the foreground. The published documentation says FIDO was placed on a simulated lander at the Nevada site and acquired its initial panoramas from the lander. �
News that dont even research no more, is that where we are now
Are you insane. Blubber faced buffoon
Wow Utah…..
I think it’s a waste of time and dollars to go BACK to the moon. To repeat history..? Really?
Let us all move on… to new worlds. Shall we?
Here’s the thing, the Moon could serve as a test bed for living on other worlds. There’s a lot of uncertainty about how low gravity, increased radiation, isolation, etc would affect the human body. Best to test such things on the Moon before crewed missions go to Mars. Luna is also the best place to test out technologies and strategies for things like growing crops on another planet, 3d printing, etc.
Ha! What in the actual buck is going on here and I wanna see what a
blubber faced buffoon looks like!
Yes this does look like Southern Utah. Why ???
