Strap on your 3-D glasses, folks. Curiosity is back on ZME Science, this time in full 3-D.

We just got ahold of two extraordinary three-dimensional photos, taken by the car-sized rover on Mars by combining images from the robot’s navigation cameras, which operate in pairs to provide stereo views of the Martian surface.
