In the "mission success" panorama
http://origin.mars5.jpl.nasa.gov/gal...B009R1_br2.jpg there is visible a pebble or small stone that has a very unusual shape: it appears to have two "stalks" that protrude upwards (rather like the stalks or antennae of a snail). One can see the pebble by scrolling about 3/5 of the way to the right, and about 3/5 of the way down, in the panorama. In the high resolution view, one of the stalks can be seen to be casting a shadow. Any idea how a stone with this unusual shape could be formed? Or could it be some part of the rover airbag that fell off while it was rolling? PM -- Email: lastname at best dot com. No spam please. All spam will be complained to sender's ISP. |
