The Perseverance rover captured some pretty massive dust devils earlier today. That large one in the foreground was at least 300m high.
EDIT: corrected height estimate from 500 to 300m.

This is an enhanced processing of images taken by the Left Navigation Camera around noon (12:27 LMST). The full sequence lasted about 2.5 minutes. The dust devils were a lot fainter in the raw images.
