NASA’s Curiosity Rover doesn’t get the praise it deserves, primarily because it is a robot. Curiosity captured 11 individual photos with its Mast Camera of a sand-capped butte, nicknamed “Miraflores.” The butte was left behind as surrounding rock eroded away over time, deepening the broad valley Curiosity is climbing through. Those 11 photos were sent back to Earth and stitched together. The butte is surrounded by thousands of Martian polygons on the floor, which is thought to be an ancient seabed.
