  1. Another of those #JezeroBrightRocks. This one looks rather curly 🙃

  4. A Stereo3D view captured today by Perseverance, as the rover gets closer to the edge of the rim of Jezero Crater

    To go 3D: eyes' lines of sight parallel/left image for left eye/right image for right eye.

  5. Two 360° panoramas captured by the Mars rover Perseverance, and recently released by the Mastcam-Z team at Arizona State University. They come in 2 flavors: "enhanced colors" and "natural colors".

    1) Trout River/Shallow Bay, Sol 1399
    2) South Arm, Sol 1412

  7. Perseverance is getting closer to the edge of the rim of the crater, should soon set wheels on the sands of Nili Planum.

  8. [Under the Martian #tropics ...] There was a time when #water abounded and shaped the Martian #landscapes. This is evidenced by several fragments of clear, alumina-rich #rocks recently analyzed by the instruments of the #Perseverance rover ...

    These rocks contain minerals such as #kaolinite, one of the markers of a once habitable environment. Infos+ : irap.omp.eu/en/2025/02/could-m

  10. Mars samples update: this is the hole drilled by Perseverance to acquire the "Silver Mountain" sample three days ago, at the "Shallow Bay" geological feature, at the Witch Hazel Hill site on the rim of Jezero Crater. Image captured today (Sol 1403).

  11. You may find a better name for it, but the name I gave to this rock is "This Way Up". It looks like the rear of a broken statue though ...
