  3. Mars Rocks!
    These are from Gale crater, snapped by Curiosity rover on August 18, 2023 (Sol 3921) using its 100mm mast camera. Each of the processed mosaics are assembled from overlapping Bayer reconstructed frames and document a new region that is thought to contain some materials that have been washed down from Gediz Vallis.

  8. RT @NASAJPL
    The most ambitious crossover announcement in space?

    @NASAInSight just named "@RollingStones Rock" on Mars in honor of the band. Watch @RobertDowneyJr announce the @nasa news live on stage at the Rose Bowl ahead of tonight's concert. go.nasa.gov/marsrocks  #MarsRocks

  9. Hello “@RollingStones Rock” Who could hang a name on you? Um... us!

    When @NASAInsight touched down on the Red Planet, its engines sent a rock rolling across Mars' surface. We named it for the band. Take a closer look and learn how #MarsRocks get named: mars.nasa.gov/news/8504/?site=
