Mastcam-Z

Delta Rocks at Alagnak

Contributed by Sanna Alwmark

This Mastcam-Z Right Filter 0 (RGB) enhanced color mosaic was taken on Sol 629 (November 27, 2022).

This stunning Mastcam-Z mosaic shows a view of delta sedimentary rocks at an outcrop called Alagnak. The images that constitute the mosaic were taken when Perseverance explored the Cape Nukshak area of the western delta in Jezero crater. Off in the distance we see, among other things, hills (from left) Isle Royale, Santa Cruz, and Mauna Kahalawai rising above the horizon.
