NASA's Mars Curiosity rover arrived at the planet's Gediz Vallis Ridge, the site of massive debris flows billions of years ago, when the now-desert land was a wet world with lakes and gushing rivers.

Pasadena CA (JPL) Sep 20, 2023 - Three billion years ago, amid one of the last wet periods on Mars, powerful debris flows carried mud and boulders down the side of a hulking mountain. The debris spread into a fan that was later ero

This spot on Mars has preserved information about ancient landslides and evidence of Red Planet water.

NASA's Curiosity rover can now continue its search for evidence of liquid water on Mars' Mt. Sharp.

Three billion years ago, amid one of the last wet periods on Mars, powerful debris flows carried mud and boulders down the side of a hulking mountain. The debris spread into a fan that was later eroded by wind into a towering ridge, preserving an intriguing record of the Red Planet's watery past. Now, after three attempts, NASA's Curiosity Mars rover has reached the ridge, capturing the formation in a 360-degree panoramic mosaic. Previous forays were stymied by knife-edged "gator-ba...
