Perseverance on its way to RMC 42.2700 made a stop to take a picture of its companion, Ingenuity, at RMC 42.2360. The team apparently intended the image to be very detailed so they used Mastcam-Z with a focal length of 110mm from a distance of 14m!

Thanks for sharing- This is really cool to see!
There is a another image in the pipeline that will fill in the missing part of the image. I will share it again once that full frame image arrives and has been joined with the first one.
This is one of those instances where the “stitch-panorama” feature that I’m experimenting with in my Mars Feed app really produces some cool results! (I also did some light editing in Google Photos before uploading this)
Nice feature in your App :)
😄
Am I correct in remembering that you’ve tried that feature in the past, and it didn’t work on your device?
You have a good memory, a change of phone fixed it :)
Oh awesome! That’s great to hear! I’m experimenting with the idea of offloading this to an off-device process so that all users can have consistent results regardless of their devices. Unfortunately, that cloud infrastructure is already costing me a decent amount of money… So gotta figure out how to solve that problem as well (without annoying users too much with cost or ads)
Good luck with solving the multi-device issues :) and keep up the good work
