NASA's Curiosity Rover Uncovers Mysterious Martian Spiderwebs and Surprises

NASA's Curiosity rover is set to explore large spiderweb-like "boxwork" features on Mars, which may provide insights into the planet's watery past. These formations, spanning 6 to 12 miles, are believed to have formed from mineral-rich water, similar to terrestrial boxwork found in caves. Scientists are particularly interested in the minerals within these structures, as they could reveal whether conditions on ancient Mars were suitable for life. Curiosity's exploration of this area is expected to begin in early 2025.
