Scientists discover the Mars bedrock the Perseverance Rover has been driving on likely formed from red-hot magma, as well as discovering rocks which have interacted with water.

Scientists at NASAs Perseverance Mars rover mission have discovered that rocks in the Jezero Crater on the Red Planet have interacted with water multiple times over the eons and that some contain organic molecules.

The rover's latest finding suggests that the bedrock it has been driving over since landing was once formed by volcanic lava flows — something that was

The general consensus is that Mars is mostly a reddish planet, a hue achieved through the oxidation of the vast quantities of iron present in the soil. At least that’s how we perceive it from afar, as from closer to the surface “you'll see that a lot of Mars is actually more of a butterscotch color,” as NASA says.

It hasnt even been on Mars a full year, and NASAs Perseverance rover is making excellent surprise discoveries.

Lava once flowed at the site of an ancient lake on Mars.
