Curiosity's Traverse Map Through Sol 369

This map shows the route driven by NASA's Mars rover Curiosity through the 369 Martian day, or sol, of the rover's mission on Mars (August 20, 2013).

August 21, 2013

This map shows the route driven by NASA's Mars rover Curiosity through the 369 Martian day, or sol, of the rover's mission on Mars (August 20, 2013).

Numbering of the dots along the line indicate the sol number of each drive. North is up. The scale bar is 200 meters (656 feet). From Sol 365 to Sol 369, Curiosity had driven a straight line distance of about 231.26 feet (70.49 meters).

The base image from the map is from the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment Camera (HiRISE) in NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter.

This chart shows increases in the volume of data coming back from NASA's Mars rover Curiosity over recent sols, or Martian days. The rover has the ability to talk directly to Earth, but its data can be relayed faster, and in larger quantities, with the help of orbiters, including NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) and NASA's Odyssey.
