Our Curiosity Mars rover rounds Martian dune to get to the other side. Curiosity, partway through the first up-close study ever conducted of extraterrestrial sand dunes, is providing dramatic views of a dune’s steep face, where cascading sand has sculpted very different textures than the wavy ripples visible on the dune’s windward slope.
This Dec. 18, 2015, view of the downwind face of „Namib Dune“ on Mars covers 360 degrees, including a portion of Mount Sharp on the horizon.
