## Caption

While NASA’s Perseverance Mars rover usually gets all the headlines, the older Curiosity rover is still seeking out interesting finds. And it’s just made one.

“Rock. Rock. Rock. Rock. Rock. Rock. METEORITE!” a message on Curiosity’s Twitter account said on Thursday. “It’s not uncommon to find meteorites on Mars — in fact, I’ve done it a few times! But a change in scenery’s always nice.” Curiosity also confirmed that the rock, which the JPL team has named Cacao, is made of iron nickel.
