Summary
[edit]| Description |
Curiosity looking out over western Glen Torridon, a large east-west trending bedrock valley formed along the northern flanks of Mt. Sharp. This valley hosts strong orbital detections of clay, and was the target of the mission's geologic explorations. This image was taken from Central Butte, a large mound located near the southern edge of Glen Torridon. The low rise of Vera Rubin Ridge (which begins to fade out to the west of Curiosity's location) is visible as the chain of small hills at right. The gently sloping hill in the midground at left is a portion of the Greenhaugh Pediment, which was formed by rocks deposited at the mouth of Gediz Vallis, a channel that was carved into Mt. Sharp's flanks later in the crater's history. Central Butte is an isolated erosional remnant of these rocks. This image was taken on Sol 2577 (November 5, 2019).
