It recently shared six images with the world over the few days it has been on it. However, I stumbled upon a post by one video creator who goes by the name of Hugh Hou, who took these different images, stitched them together and edited them to look like a panoramic view of the Martian surface.
He also made some modifications such as editing the sky adding beautiful stars and colourful hues making the end result a picturesque beauty that will make everyone¡¯s jaw drop. The clear sky created by Hou showcases various constellations of stars that look breathtaking and something straight out of one of the planets in Avengers Endgame.

Hugh Hou said in the caption while sharing the 360-degree image, ¡°the original photo does not have the full sky, I edited the sky to have a full 360 experience inside a VR headset like Oculus Quest 2. The sky does not represent the real sky from Mars.¡± He further added that this is an art and not the real sky from Mars.

Developed at the facilities at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, the NASA Perseverance rover specifically is loaded with a plethora of equipment and sensors that will constantly provide data about Mars.
It has a total of 23 cameras, two microphones that allow the capture of Martian winds. The rover also has lasers onboard for chemical analysis of the Martian surface. It is also carrying PIXL -- (Planetary Instrument for X-ray Lithochemistry) -- a precision X-ray device powered by artificial intelligence (AI) that will hunt for traces of microscopic life from billions of years ago on Mars.
