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!

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)

😄

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
