Curiosity's Family Portrait, as imaged by MRO HiRISE camera - all parts of lander spotted on Martian surface

Here’s the latest pics of and from the Mars Science Laboratory/Curiosity rover. Above, Curiosity’s “family portrait” as imaged by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO)’s HiRISE camera (parts of the lander are labeled, click to enlarge. Is this cool or what??)

Next, a picture I posted yesterday on Facebook, of Curiosity’s parachute descent:

Finally, a fisheye-corrected, higher-res version of Curiosity’s shadow, with Mt. Sharp in the background. Enjoy!
