First 3-D panorama of landing site

This three-dimensional photo was assembled from images taken by the navigation camera on the rover named Spirit from atop its Mars lander, which appears stretch out and distorted from the tiling used to create this panaromic shot. If you look at it with 3D glasses (such as the type previously used for 3-D movies or sometimes included in novelty books) you should see the illusion of depth.

A smaller version of this photo was included in the article:
