Curiosity rover NASA has been photographed by the Imaging Science Experiment High Resolution (HiRISE) from the Martian orbit. This image, taken on December 11 shows the vehicle in Gale Crater and the traces left in its passage through the surface of the red planet.
Curiositytrail can observe in the photograph as it is becoming ‘zigzag’ around obstacles to be found along the way. Currently, the rover is in the midst of a journey that will end with their arrival at Mount Sharp, where he will continue his studies of the planet.
HiRISE camera was also captured images that the Mars Science Laboratory spacecraft as it descended on a parachute to leave Curiosity on Mars 17 months ago.
“Since then, it has provided updated views of cruise and allows the rover mission can see it from orbit,” said NASA.
