While much of the press is focused on Perseverance and its little helicopter, Ingenuity, NASA’s Mars Curiosity rover continues to study and explore the Martian surface. In a new study published in the journal Geology, a team of researchers has analyzed images from Curiosity’s ChemCam instrument. These images were taken with the telescopic imager, and they have an unprecedented resolution for the Martian rovers.⠀ ⠀ With these new images, those geologists have finally had their chance, and what they found shows far more climate change than predicted. But what were the conditions that lead to the change in the state of the water? Did it all disappear at once or over time? This new paper examined the recent images and found amazing sedimentary structures, in detail, that lead the team to conclude that there were multiple transitions between a wet climate and a dry climate.⠀ ⠀ Read my full story here: buff.ly/3ed65FE⠀ ⠀ IMAGE: View of hillocks on the slopes of Mount Sharp, showing t...
