Mars Guy: Episode 239.
Mars is notorious for having copious amounts of dust, so when the dust cover of the highest resolution camera on Perseverance could not be closed, it seemed doomed. Here’s what’s happened after 21 months uncovered.

Meanwhile on Mars:

A Bayer reconstructed Mast Camera Mosaic from Sol 4700 (October 26, 2025). It features a section of the rocky ridge that surrounds the shallow depression in the boxwork region on Mount Sharp, where Curiosity rover is presently stationed after drilling a small hole in the bedrock to extract a portion of powdered rock for analysis.

This mosaic was assembled from overlapping mast camera images acquired by Curiosity rover, it provides a close-up of eroded Martian rock formations, showcasing uneven, layered surfaces with reddish-brown tones and scattered fragments that have tumbled from the ridge.

Meanwhile on Mars: An uphill drive lasting ~67 minutes for Perseverance rover during mission Sol 1661 (October 22, 2025). The distance was ~44 meters due north, climbing ~9.2 meters, with an end-of-drive tilt of 18.7°.

Attached is a processed rear HazCam image looking downslope at its wheel tracks, the drive data, and screen captures of the updated mission map (with scale bars).

9 overlapping ChemCam RMI images acquired during sol 4687 assembled into a mosaic using MS-ICE. Curiosity rover acquired additional images, but they have yet to be downlinked from the rover in the correct format on the public server. Credits: NASA/JPL-Caltech/LANL/IRAP

Then & Now on Mars:
Images acquired 13 years apart feature Curiosity rover's MAHLI camera with its lens cap fully closed. The first image was taken just 32 Sols after landing in 2012, the second image was taken a few days ago on Sol 4,656 (September 11, 2025.
13 years of dust accumulation may appear bad, but the camera is still acquiring beautiful close-up images on Mars.
