Here's a Stellarium screenshot, set for the place, time, and the approximate field of view of the Mastcam shot. Some of the brighter stars are indicated, I wonder if image-processing wizards here can bring them out in the Mastcam shots.

I wonder is these colours are due to how Mastcam processed the image, or are they the real subtle colour variations of the surface. -------------------- Curiosity rover panoramas: http://www.facebook.com/CuriosityRoverPanoramas
