Image . Mastcam-Z Looks at Its Calibration Target – Jet Propulsion Laboratory
NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, the leading center for robotic exploration of the solar system.
Mastcam-Z, a pair of zoomable cameras aboard NASA’s Perseverance rover, imaged its calibration target for the first time on Feb. 20, 2021, the second Martian day, or sol, of Perseverance’s mission.
