TL;DR Summary

NASA's Curiosity rover is exploring a new region on Mars, Gediz Vallis channel, to uncover clues about the disappearance of liquid water from the planet's surface. Scientists are intrigued by the possibility that the winding channel was carved by an ancient river and are searching for evidence to confirm its formation. The rover's exploration of this area could revise the timeline for the formation of Mount Sharp and provide insights into the history of water on Mars, including evidence of water coming and going in phases.
