Uploader comment: This image of a Martian rock illuminated by white-light LEDs (light emitting diodes) is part of the first set of nighttime images taken by the Mars Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI) camera at the end of the robotic arm of NASA's Mars rover Curiosity. MAHLI took the images on January 22, 2012 (PST), after dark on the 165th Martian day, or sol, of the rover's work on Mars.
