"NASA's Curiosity Rover Captures a Full Martian Day in Stunning New Timelapse"
NASA's Curiosity rover captured a 12-hour time-lapse on Mars, providing a detailed look at the planet's surface and potential insights into its weather patterns. The rover, which has been on Mars since 2012, took the images with its Hazard-Avoidance Cameras while parked in Gale Crater. Although no weather anomalies were observed, the time-lapse could help scientists understand the Martian environment better. Curiosity has been exploring Mount Sharp within the crater, collecting soil samples to determine the planet's habitability for microbial life. The images also show the rover's shadow and the accumulation of Martian dust on the cameras over the years.
