DUST DEVILS ON MARS: The Perseverance Mars Rover recorded sparks and mini-sonic booms as dust devils 🌪️ spun on the surface of the red planet. Scientists say friction created by the dust particles generate enough electrical charge to create the sparks and explosions heard by the rover's microphone. #mars | WeatherNation

On February 18, 2021, NASA successfully landed the Perseverance rover on Mars after traveling about 471 million kilometers from Earth. As it entered the Martian atmosphere at nearly 20,000 km/h, a powerful heat shield protected it from extreme heat. A supersonic parachute then deployed to slow it down. What followed was the intense “Seven Minutes of Terror.” Perseverance separated from the parachute, fired its rockets, and was carefully lowered to the surface using the sky crane system. Once the

Mars is full of layered rocks shaped by wind, dust storms, and ancient geological activity over billions of years. Lighting, shadows, and erosion can turn ordinary rocks into extraordinary illusions. #Mars #fblitestyle #MarsMystery #SpaceX #NASA | Mars journey
