Point-by-point measured 440 nm and 880 nm Atmospheric Opacity values obtained from Mars Exploration Rover Pancam solar images during Mars Years 26-30 for Spirit and 26-31 (and ongoing) for Opportunity. The opacity values plotted above are Spirit - 440 nm from 2tau440_2209_20110214a and 880 nm from 2tau880_2209_20110214a and Opportunity - 440 nm from 1tau440_2790_20120504a and 880 nm from 1tau440_2790_20120504a located in the MER Pancam Opacity archive merao_1xxx at the PDS Geosciences node.
The Pancam design has a camera bar that contains Pancam and Navcam (navigation camera) heads. A "visor" changes the elevation of the cameras so the rover can look up or down, making it possible to carry out detailed observations of sky brightness.
