NASA Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter Movie: Flying Over Spirit’s Work Site
Images of the “Columbia Hills” region inside Mars’ Gusev Crater, taken by the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment camera on NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, provided detailed, three-dimensional information that was used to create this animation of a hypothetical flyover. NASA’s Mars Exploration Rover Spirit has been exploring this range of hills since 2004.
