TL;DR Summary

NASA's Curiosity rover has provided a glimpse into a Martian day with a timelapse video titled "Curiosity 12-hour View of Mars." Captured using its Hazard-Avoidance Cameras during a period of solar conjunction, the footage shows the rover's shadow moving across the Martian terrain over a 12-hour period, which is slightly longer than an Earth day. The rover, which has been on Mars since 2012, was stationary for two weeks and used this time to study Martian weather and dust. The video is a unique look at the passage of time on the Red Planet and showcases the rover's ongoing mission to explore and study Mars.
