Curiosity Selfie at Mary Anning

Curiosity Selfie at Mary Anning
Curiosity Selfie at Mary Anning This selfie was created from 59 images captured by NASA's Mars Curiosity rover on 25 October 2020. The rover was stopped at a location named Mary Anning where scientists suspect conditions on Mars were once favorable for life. The site is named after a 19th-century English paleontologist whose discovery of marine-reptile fossils was ignored for generations because of her gender and class. NASA/JPL-Caltech/MSSS
