content: From Wikipedia Fixed science/engineering instruments include:  Panoramic Camera (Pancam) – examines the texture, color, mineralogy, and structure of the local terrain. Navigation Camera (Navcam) – monochrome with a higher field of view but lower resolution, for navigation and driving. Miniature Thermal Emission Spectrometer (Mini-TES) – identifies promising rocks and soils for closer examination, and determines the processes that formed them. Hazcams, two B&W cameras with 120 degree field of view, that provide additional data about the rover's surroundings.  The rover arm holds the following instruments:  Mössbauer spectrometer (MB) MIMOS II – used for close-up investigations of the mineralogy of iron-bearing rocks and soils. Alpha particle X-ray spectrometer (APXS) – close-up analysis of the abundances of elements that make up rocks and soils. Magnets – for collecting magnetic dust particles Microscopic Imager (MI) – obtains close-up, high-resolution images of rocks and soils. Rock Abrasion Tool (RAT) – exposes fresh material for examination by instruments on board. The cameras produce 1024-pixel by 1024-pixel images, the data is compressed with ICER, stored, and transmitted later.
