Paul HammondA close up of the latest abrasion patch on Mars. The diameter of the patch is ~5cm (2 inches). Perseverance rover acquired this image using its SHERLOC WATSON camera, located on the turret at the end of the rover's robotic arm.This image was acquired on April 18, 2025 (Sol 1479) at the local mean solar time of 12:54:46.Image Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Perseverance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Perseverance</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/MarsRover" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MarsRover</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Mars" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mars</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/M2020" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#M2020</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/NASA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NASA</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#science</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Space" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Space</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Exploration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Exploration</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Solarocks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Solarocks</a>

Paul HammondMars Guy - Episode 210 - In a recently published scientific paper about these white rocks, the Perseverance team positively identified for the first time a surprisingly rare mineral on Mars. It’s surprising because on Earth you probably wouldn’t give it a second look.<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZqjLLZEHbNQ" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZqjLLZEHbNQ</a><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Mars" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mars</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/M2020" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#M2020</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Perseverance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Perseverance</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/MarsRover" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MarsRover</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/NASA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NASA</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#science</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Space" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Space</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Exploration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Exploration</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Solarocks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Solarocks</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/youtube" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#youtube</a>

Paul HammondTwo SHERLOC WATSON images of the latest abrasion patch on Mars. This patch is at site 72.0 and imaged during sol 1473 (April 12, 2025). For scale the patch has a diameter of 5cm (~2 inches). The camera is located on the turret at the end of the rover's robotic arm, so can be placed close to the targets.

Paul HammondMeet the 25th Martian sample collected by NASA’s Mars Perseverance rover – “Sapphire Canyon” – a sample taken from a vein-filled rock named “Cheyava Falls.” The arrowhead-shaped rock contains compelling features that may help answer whether Mars was home to microscopic life in the distant past.<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bLhVJKoIOg" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bLhVJKoIOg</a><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Mars" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mars</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/M2020" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#M2020</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Perseverance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Perseverance</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/MarsRover" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MarsRover</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/NASA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NASA</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#science</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Space" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Space</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Exploration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Exploration</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Solarocks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Solarocks</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/youtube" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#youtube</a>
