Structures like these, called hoodoos, are also found on land.
the Curiosity rover, sent by the American space agency NASA to explore the Gale crater or Mars, has found a strange rock formation on the red planet.
the SEtI Institute, a nonprofit research organization focused on the search for life in the Universe, highlighted the image in a tweet last week, calling it “rock cool.”
“the spikes are most likely the cemented fillings of ancient fractures in a sedimentary rock.
Structures like these are also found in certain places on earth.
Hoodoos go by many names, such as Hoodoos, Earth Pyramids, and Tent Rocks.
NASA is interested in such findings, which should reveal more information about the history of Gale Crater.
the photo of the “spikes” was taken by a camera aboard the Curiosity rover on May 15, according to Vice News, just a week before it found an unusual structure in the rocks that looked like a neatly hewn doorway nestled on the planet
the image was captured by the Curiosity rover over a geological feature known as the Greenheugh Pediment on May 7 and shared on Reddit by NASA.
