Layers of 'Cabo Frio' in 'Victoria Crater'

Jet Propulsion Laboratory https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/ Oct. 6, 2006
This true-color image taken on Sept. 28, 2006 from NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity, shows Victoria crater, looking southeast from Duck Bay towards the dramatic promontory called Cabo Frio.

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 an approximately true color rendering of 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 750-nanometer, 530-nanometer and 430-nanometer filters.
