Leonard David's INSIDE OUTER SPACE

Thanks to the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory a new video has been rolled out.

This compilation of images is based on hazard-avoidance cameras on NASA’s Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity taken between January 2004 and April 2015.

The video shows the rover’s-eye-view of the Martian marathon covering 26.2 miles (42.2 kilometers) from its landing location.

A map of the rover’s path is on the right.
