The 3D color view was taken on July 24, from the Mars Ingenuity Helicopter’s 10th flight over the Red Planet. The color anaglyph was constructed using two images taken by Ingenuity's camera color. They were both taken at 12 meters (40ft) altitude. However, they were separated by a few meters to give a stereo perspective. The Mars Perseverance science team requested stereo images from Ingenuity. These raised ridges were found on Jezero Crater's floor. The Perseverance team may visit them during their first science campaign.
