Mmm. Perseverance Finds a Doughnut-Shaped Rock on Mars. universetoday storybywill
The same rock was previously imaged by the Mastcam-Z instrument on April 15th, 2023, on sol 765 , when the rover was at a distance of about 400 meters . Along with its predecessors,, the remains of several meteorite impacts have been found on the Martian surface over the years. Thanks to Mars’ thin atmosphere, meteorites are more likely to leave fragments on the surface, and impact craters are better preserved due to the lack of precipitation.
rover has been operating on Mars since February 18th, 2021, and continues to explore the Jezero Crater – the site of a former lakebed. The rover is busy collecting samples from the preserved delta fan, which indicates that flowing water and sediment once flowed into the crater. These samples will be retrieved by themission, a joint effort between NASA and the ESA consisting of an orbiter, lander, ascent vehicle, and two helicopters.
