The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, also known as NASA, released this week a new panorama from Mars's territory, made by the only rover that's operating at the planet today, the golf-cart-sized, named as Opportunity.
Opportunity worked from December, 2011, to May, 2012, because of the Martian Summer, the only period of the year that rovers can work because of the heat on the planet, and during this time, it took more than 800 photos which were combined into a huge Hi-Def panorama from a huge crater known as Greeley Heaven.
