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

Considering the attention this #JezeroBrightRock has received, I'd say there 's probably more coming: a drilling operation to get a sample?

Detail and context images of #Perseverance's latest abrasion, and possible sample location (marked green).

Shocking Spherules!

Last week the Perseverance Science Team were astonished by a strange rock comprised of hundreds of millimeter-sized spheres… and the team are now working hard to understand their origin.

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

[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+ : https://www.irap.omp.eu/en/2025/02/could-mars-have-had-a-tropical-climate-in-the-past/

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).

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 ...
