NASA's Perseverance Rover Observes Googly Eye Eclipse on Mars
NASA's Perseverance rover has captured a rare astronomical event in which the Martian moon Phobos passed in front of the Sun, creating a visual reminiscent of a "googly eye." This event, observed from the Jezero Crater, provided insights into the dynamics of Mars' moons. Phobos, the larger of Mars' two moons, obscured the Sun's disc for approximate...

NASA Perseverance Rover Discovers Strange Zebra-Striped Rock on Mars
NASA's Perseverance rover recently captured images of a unique black-and-white striped rock on Mars, dubbed Freya Castle. This 20 cm-wide rock is unlike anything seen on the Red Planet before, leading scientists to believe it may have been formed through igneous or metamorphic processes. The discovery is part of Perseverance's Crater Rim Campaign, ...

NASA's Perseverance Rover Unearths Surprising Facts About Jezero Crater
In its latest discovery, the NASA's Perseverance rover has found that the floor of the crater, which once hosted a lake billion years ago, is made up of volcanic rocks rather than sedimentary rocks, as believed earlier. The rover started examining the floor in the spring of 2021, after which scientists studied the data. It was found that the floor ...
