Curiosity assembled this focus stacked product using images from its Mars Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI), located on the turret at the end of the rover's robotic arm, on November 11, 2024, Sol 4360. The base images were acquired one sol earlier (4359). The camera focus motor count returned with the first image has been used to estimate the camera standoff distance (camera lens to the target). In this case the standoff was ~25 centimeters (~10 inches). That standoff provides an image scale of ~95 micrometers per image pixel, or a scene width of ~15 centimeters (~6 inches).
