This image features a different perspective of one of the first pictures taken by the Imager for Mars Pathfinder (IMP)
lander shortly after its touchdown at 10:07 AM Pacific Daylight Time on July 4. The image has been transformed to a
perspective that would match that of an observer standing at the point the image was taken. Sojourner is seen in the
foreground in its stowed position on a solar panel of the lander. Both ramps, the rear of which Sojourner would use on
July 5 to safely descend to the Martian surface, were still undeployed when this image was taken. The double hills
called "Twin Peaks" are clearly visible in the background.
The Atmospheric Structure Instrument/Meteorology Package (ASI/MET) mast is visible against a backdrop of rocky
Martian terrain in this image, taken by the Imager for Mars Pathfinder (IMP).The windsocks are slightly tilted,
showing some wind activity. Distortions in the background are due to parallax.
A close up of Sojourner as it placed its Alpha Proton X-Ray Spectrometer (APXS) upon the surface of the rock Yogi
was taken by the Imager for Mars Pathfinder (IMP) over sols 8, 9 and 10. Distortion in the background is due to
parallax. Early results of Yogi show it to be low in quartz content, and more primitive than the rock Barnacle Bill, and
appeared more like the common basalts found on Earth.
