Five Mars Years of Cloud Observations at Gale Crater: Opacities, Variability, and Ice Crystal Habits

We update the record of cloud opacity observations conducted by the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) Curiosity rover to cover the first five Mars Years (MYs) of the mission ( L _s = 160° of MY 31 to L _s = 160° of MY 36).
