Curiosity Sol 1192 Mastcam Image was created by Todd
This Curiosity right mastcam image taken on sol 1192 is quite unique. At the time, Curiosity was at the edge of the "High Dune" on the drive to location C. The image seems to be the only one taken of this formation, which is likely close to the dune boundary. Some of the materials here have colors similar to the formation at "Valley Overlook" taken by Opportunity Rover.

There is no shortage of unusual aspects to this image. Some objects have evenly spaced holes and teeth. A few pieces look like carved tablets. In the background is a square patch with a circular object in the center. The image below was processed from the PDS raw DRCL .img file, enlargement below.

Thank you to everyone who has stuck by the YouTube channel and to all of our admins and forum users here on the channel.   They really have kept the website current while I have been busy taking care of things in my personal life.   I promised that the next video would be a long one and have a LOT to look at.  You can get lost in these Gigapans and I really hope that you do!  I spent a lot of time stitching these together and making sure that they were the best quality that I could get them.  SOL 1448 really has been a goldmine for anomaly hunters and those people who are just hobbiest.  I really hope you enjoy this one and expect much more to come from the latest batches of images!
