At 02:23:12 UTC the Mastcam Right has taken a nice view of a typical Martian landscape.
Pink hills, soil a little pink and a little brownish, stratified rocks of various sizes also mostly pink or brownish, except for some rocks tending to turquoise. I hope to revisit this shot taken in the next few days to observe any changes….
The original image is a black and white encoding of the Bayer mask that has been converted to color through a process called “debayering” or “demosaicing”. In addition, the photo has undergone noise reduction due to Jpeg compression, white balance and a slight increase in microcontrast and color saturation in order to make the colors more similar to what the human eye would see.
