Curiosity's selfie at the Mary Anning location on Mars.


November 12, 2020 - The Curiosity Mars rover took this selfie at a location nicknamed Mary Anning. Curiosity snagged three samples of drilled rock at this site on its way out of the Glen Torridon region, which scientists believe was a site where ancient conditions would have been favorable to supporting life, if it ever was present. Curiosity took the selfie using a camera called the Mars Hand Lens Imager located on the end of its robotic arm.
