This view of "Victoria crater" is looking southeast from "Duck Bay"
towards the dramatic promontory called "Cabo Frio." The small crater in
the right foreground, informally known as "Sputnik," is about 20 meters
(about 65 feet) away from the rover, the tip of the spectacular, layered,
Cabo Frio promontory itself is about 200 meters (about 650 feet) away from
the rover, and the exposed rock layers are about 15 meters (about 50 feet)
tall. This is a red-blue stereo anaglyph generated from images taken by
the panoramic camera (Pancam) on NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity
during the rover's 952nd sol, or Martian day, (Sept. 28, 2006) using the
camera's 430-nanometer filters.
