NASA's Perseverance rover spots thousands of 'Unusual' white rocks on Mars | Oneindia News
Mars, often dubbed the "red planet," has once again intrigued scientists with a new discovery.
NASA's Perseverance rover, tirelessly exploring Mars' Jezero Crater since early 2021, has stumbled upon a peculiar sight: thousands of white rocks scattered across the crater's surface.
Recent images transmitted by the rover reveal over 4,000 light-toned pebble-sized rocks strewn throughout the crater floor.
"These rocks are highly unusual, and we're actively working to unravel their origins," remarked Candice Bedford, a planetary scientist at Purdue University and member of the Mars 2020 science team, speaking at the Lunar and Planetary Science Conference (LPSC) last month.
Concurrently, NASA is wrapping up an architectural review of its Mars Sample Return (MSR) program, which aims to retrieve Martian rocks for detailed analysis back on Earth.
NASA decided using the Boeing Starliner capsule to bring Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams back to Earth was too risky following a string of technical glitches on their outwards journey.

On board the capsule were Roscosmos cosmonauts Oleg Kononenko and Nikolai Chub and NASA astronaut Tracy Dyson. The two Russians broke the record for the longest continuous stay at the space station.
