Curiosity selfie



NASA?s Curiosity Mars rover snapped a picture of itself at work of studying rock samples on the surface of the red planet. The image was created by combining a series of shots Curiosity took from multiple angles using the camera attached to the end of its arm. The images were stitched together to remove the arm from the view.

In this picture, Curiosity is examining a small hole (dark grey) it has drilled into the rock, to take samples of the rock?s interior.
