Summary

Description
English: This image shows where NASA's Curiosity rover aimed two different instruments to study a rock known as "Jake Matijevic." The red dots are where the Chemistry and Camera (ChemCam) instrument zapped it with its laser on Sept. 21, 2012, and Sept. 24, 2012, which were the 45th and 48th sol, or Martian day of operations. The circular black and white images were taken by ChemCam to look for the pits produced by the laser. The purple circles indicate where the Alpha Particle X-ray Spectrometer trained its view.
This image was obtained by Curiosity's Mast Camera on Sept. 21, 2012 PDT (Sept. 22 UTC), or sol 46. Scientists white-balanced the color in this view to increase the inherent differences visible within the rock.
Polski: Zdjęcie to, pokazuje gdzie należący do NASA łazik Curiosity skierował dwa różne instrumenty, aby studiować skałę zwaną " Jake Matijevic ". Czerwone kropki wskazują punkty, w które urządzenie ( ChemCAM ) skierowało wiązkę lasera w dniach 21 września 2012 roku i 24 września 2012, a były to 45 i 48 sol , lub 45 i 48 dzień operacji łazika Curiosity. Purpurowe koła wskazują, gdzie Alpha Particle X-ray Spectrometer trenował praktycznie swoje operacje.
Niebieski kolor skały nie jest kolorem prawdziwym, naukowcy ustawili balans bieli zdjęcia na tym poziomie, aby podkreślić i zwiększyć różnice tkwiące we wzorze skały.
