To whet our appetites for the extraordinary expertise that would be the revelation of first the James Webb pictures on July twelfth, NASA has launched a beautiful picture of the Gale Crater on Mars. Right here’e extra from Astronomy Now:
This panorama was taken by the rover’s MastCam – from a ‘clay-bearing unit’ on the flank of Mount Sharp. The mountain’s mineralogy was closely influenced by working water billions of years in the past, when Gale crater was a lake, and the clay-rich materials is a product of that water. Curiosity is now heading additional up the slopes of the mountain, to a ‘sulphate-bearing unit’, which it is going to hopefully have reached by the point that you just learn this.
