## Summary

NASA's Perseverance used Mastcam-Z to capture a 360-degree dusty vista of Neretva Vallis within Mars' Jezero Crater, stitched together from 217 images collected on May 20, 2024, the 1,155th Martian day of the mission. The image was color-enhanced to improve visual contrast and highlight color differences; billions of years ago, the site was a river channel that fed fresh water into Jezero Crater.
