NASA rover spots bizarre 'turtle' hiding among ancient rocks on Mars

NASA's Perseverance rover photographed a turtle-like rock formation on Mars in the Jezero Crater on August 31, using its SHERLOC and WATSON instruments. This structure adds to a collection of peculiar Martian rocks resembling Earth objects, often perceived through pareidolia. After five years on Mars, Perseverance continues to document these geological curiosities shaped by ancient water and wind erosion.
