Of course a sol is a Martian solar day, about 40 minutes longer than an Earth day. Curiosity&#8217;s sol 1943 corresponds to Earth date January 23, 2018. Also composed as an interactive 360 degree VR, the mosaicked panorama combines 61 exposures taken by the car-sized rover&#8217;s Mars Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI). Frames containing the imager&#8217;s arm have been edited out while the extended background used was taken by the rover&#8217;s Mastcam on sol 1903. At the top of the rover&#8217;s mast, sitting above the Mastcam, the laser-firing ChemCam housing blocks out the distant peak of Mount Sharp. via NASA <a href=\"https:\/\/apod.nasa.gov\/apod\/ap180126.html\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On sol 1943 of its journey of exploration across the surface of Mars, the Curiosity Rover recorded this selfie at the south rim of Vera Rubin Ridge.
