Crater interior from Opportunity via Mars Express

This false-colour image of the interior of 'Endurance Crater' on Mars was collected on 4 August 2004 by NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity.

The image, taken with the Rover's panoramic camera, was relayed to Earth by ESA's Mars Express together with other scientific data.

Three separate frames, taken through red, green and blue filters, were combined to produce this colour image.

This view of the interior slope and rim of 'Endurance Crater' comes from the navigation camera on NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity with an assist from the ESA's Mars Express.

Opportunity took the three frames that make up this image on 4 August 2004, then transmitted them with other data to Mars Express, which in turn relayed them to Earth.

Rover wheel tracks are visible in the foreground.
