Satellite observations had shown alternative lines of light and dark color rock in the area. At the end of March, persistence excavated one of the light color formations and collected a sample. In the process revealed the odd rock – which is named “St. Paul’s Bay”.
According to the perseverance team, St. Paul’s Bay is a “swim” rock – that is, a rock that should not exist in this country. But what created this rock formation in March, and how it settled in this region remains unknown. This rock seems to be made up of smaller, round, dark gray stones, each hundreds of millimeters in size. The shapes of these small round stones vary: some are oval -shaped, some have sharp edges, and some have small holes in them.
POSSIBLEST POSSIBLE THAT THESE Spherulas are concrete– Transports created by groundwater moving through the pores on a rock, which suggests that it may have had abundant liquid in Mars. However, on Earth these spherols are also created when the molten rock is quickly cooled, for example after a volcanic eruption. The perseverance science team is investigating the origin of the small round stones that make up the bay of St. Paul. It is possible for them to derive from a dark colored ribbon of the nearby rock formation nearby.
