TL;DR Summary

NASA's Curiosity rover has captured a stunning 360-degree panorama of Gediz Vallis on Mars, revealing a rocky terrain that may have been carved by an ancient river. Scientists are eager to gather clues about Mars' watery past and the possibility of it being once habitable, as well as the phases of water presence and disappearance on the planet. The rover's exploration of this region enriched with sulfates suggests that water may have returned to Mars fairly late in the story of Mount Sharp, indicating a changing climate on the planet.
