Boxes full of science! 📦🧪 Curiosity is exploring this region of “boxwork” formations, which suggest ancient groundwater flowed on this part of the Red Planet later than scientists expected. go.nasa.gov/46oiDWr

@NASAMars curiosity really knows how to pick its spots

@NASAMars Finding evidence that groundwater flowed on Mars later than expected keeps rewriting everything we thought we knew about the planet. Curiosity just keeps delivering discoveries years into its mission.

@NASAMars So cool. So excited for the journey to Mars

@NASAMars @NASASolarSystem Those caves are good places to start outposts because less digging for regolith radiation protection

@NASAMars Fascinating glimpse into Mars' ancient past! These boxwork formations look like intricate spiderwebs carved by long-gone groundwater. It's amazing how Curiosity keeps revealing the Red Planet's watery secrets. What other surprises await?

@NASAMars I understand the concept that enough random geological features will eventually yield areas that appear deliberately engineered, but damn those look like terraces 😅

@NASAMars Boxwork is like the leftover skeleton of mineral veins. Water moves through cracks, minerals fill the cracks, and later the softer rock erodes away so the harder mineral pattern stands out.

@NASAMars Our homeland.

@NASAMars Awesome

@NASAMars Fake

@NASAMars The 'boxwork' formations are a geological Rosetta Stone. Finding evidence of groundwater flowing later than expected challenges our temporal models of Martian habitability. It's a reminder that planetary evolution is rarely a linear descent into aridity. 🪐💧

@NASAMars @NASASolarSystem NWA 7034, whose official name refers to its location in northwest Africa, is a piece of Mars that fell to Earth after a long journey through space. It was knocked off Mars by a giant impact, and the rock itself was formed about 4.48 billion years ago.

@NASAMars Yes 👍☀️🇺🇸

@NASAMars Process records itself in geometry.

@NASAMars 宇宙はいるの？？

@NASAMars Fake fake fake. NASA have one positive its legal burning public money its all

@NASAMars Earth coping

@NASAMars anh đây có chịu làm chồng em không?

@NASAMars Cool.

@NASAMars @NASASolarSystem Looks like a strip mine area.

@NASAMars @RocketLab @NASAAdmin , we need to go pick those up! One company is ready and will deliver on a contract.

@NASAMars Wow!

@NASAMars Malarkey, fiction, boulderdash, wasn't the fake moon landing enough What's next Venus, or Uranus give me a break already

Free Cone Day is here! Come celebrate with us at a DQ location on 3.19 by getting a FREE small vanilla cone 🍦

@NASAMars Nice

@NASAMars Very strang video to the Mars surface

@NASAMars Curiosity delivers again! Boxwork formations could unlock secrets of Mars' watery past. This is planetary science at its finest.

It's time to dance and to celebrate, FanDuel is giving all customers Bonus Bets for the tourney!
