The greenish spots at the southern bank of Neretva are also astrobiology-interesting. #LeopardSpots #ReddestRock #MalgosaCrest #JezeroDeltaScience

Sounds like a long shot, but linking #PerseveranceRover observations of nickel over-abundance at #NeretvaVallis to the #LeopardSpots

@65dBnoise yeah, quite a lot of photographing on just this rock, I wonder if the contact exposure has given some organics signature or something #PDSAnalystNotebook

You meant that apparent #LeopardSpots right? Maybe a coincidence, it being the only clear one. But it's also there in the night pic (https://mars.nasa.gov/mars2020/multimedia/raw-images/SIF_1465_0797024818_031EBY_N0710160SRLC08029_0000LMJ) and with some other spot-like thingies around, although maybe artefacts.
