Excited about the probe – Xinhua reported that United States National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) revealed that the Mars surface probe “Curiosity” (Curiosity) recorded the first solar radiation on Mars
The Curiosity rover captured this image of the sun’s rays breaking through clouds at sunset on Feb. 2. This is the 3,730th day of the Mars mission. And it’s the first time to see the sun’s rays clearly on Mars.

In addition, Curiosity captured a picture of a multicolored, plume-shaped cloud on Jan. 27, 2023, and some of these clouds, exposed to sunlight, were also forming. “The birth of opalescent color” (iridescence) Like a rainbow too
NASA also noted that Curiosity captured a panoramic image of the sun’s rays and rainbow clouds. Each image was stitched together from 28 images sent back to Earth. Those images were edited to highlight the highlights.
ตื่นตายานสำรวจ – NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover has for the first time captured sun rays on Mars, the agency said. The rover captured the sun rays shining through clouds at sunset on Feb. 2, the 3,730th Martian day of the mission. It was the first time that sun rays, also known as crepuscular rays, have been viewed so clearly on Mars, said NASA. The Curiosity rover captured both the sun rays and iridescent clouds as panoramas, each of which was stitched together from 28 images sent to Earth. The images have been processed to emphasize the highlights, according to NASA. /jpl.nasa.gov/

Studying the colors in iridescent clouds tells scientists something about particle size within the clouds and how they grow over time. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/MSSS
