Gale Crater, Mars C013 / 7312
Gale Crater, Mars. This is the landing site for the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) mission rover, Curiosity. Gale Crater is 154km in diameter. The ellipse at top left is the predicted landing region, an area about 20km long and 7km wide. The rover, which weighs over 900 kilograms, has a robotic arm to collect samples and a camera on a 2.1 metre tall mast. The MSL was launched on 26th November 2011 and is due to land on Mars on 6th August 2012 on a mission to determine if Mars is, or was ever, able to support microbial life. Image obtained using data from the High Resolution Stereo Camera on the Mars Express Orbiter, the Context Camera on the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter and the Viking Orbiter

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the breathtaking Gale Crater on Mars, which serves as the landing site for NASA's Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) mission rover, Curiosity. With a diameter of 154km, this vast crater is an intriguing target for scientific exploration. The top left ellipse represents the predicted landing region, spanning approximately 20km in length and 7km in width. Curiosity, weighing over 900 kilograms, stands proudly on the Martian surface equipped with advanced technology. Its robotic arm allows it to collect samples while a camera mounted on a towering 2.1-meter mast captures stunning images from its unique perspective. The MSL was launched into space on November 26th, 2011 and is scheduled to touch down on Mars' soil by August 6th, 2012. This ambitious mission aims to unravel one of humanity's greatest mysteries – whether Mars has ever been capable of supporting microbial life. This awe-inspiring composite image was created using data obtained from various sources such as the High Resolution Stereo Camera aboard the Mars Express Orbiter and the Context Camera aboard the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. Additionally, information gathered by the Viking Orbiter contributes to our understanding of this enigmatic planet within our solar system. As we venture further into the depths of space in this technologically driven era, these remarkable advancements in planetary science continue to fuel our curiosity about distant worlds like never before.
