NASA’s Mars Exploration Rover Spirit took this image of the rock “Mazatzal” on sol 82 with the hazard avoidance camera.  It was taken after the rock abrasion tool completed a 3 hour and 45 minute grind to produce the hole on Mazatzal’s surface.  The wheel tracks that can be seen at the base of the rock were not intentional, but simply a product of rover positioning.
