It shows the Mars landers Spirit (foreground), Opportunity (middle), and Curiosity (background) taken in front of JPL building 180, aka the Directors building. SO COOL. For all the folks asking why Curiosity is such a big deal when we’ve landed several other robots on mars; LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THAT DAMN THING!
