Dated the day this page was built. The link always leads to this event, even after the stories are regrouped.
Nasa has released a striking image of dawn on the Martian surface taken by its Curiosity rover, showing sunlight bathing jagged crags formed billions of years ago as the car-sized vehicle continues to explore Earth’s planetary neighbour.
What happened
The outlets' own sentences, most widely reported first. Hover or tap one to see who reported it.
Curiosity landed in 2012 in Gale Crater near the Martian equator, and since 2014 has been climbing Mount Sharp, a 5km-tall (3-mile-tall) mountain rising from the crater floor.
The image was taken by the six-wheeled rover’s Mastcam camera about an hour after the sun rose above a landscape featuring wind-carved cliffs in the distance.
The yardang layer most likely formed about 3 billion years ago, around the same time as the rest of the mountain, according to Vasavada.

NASA released a striking image taken by the Curiosity rover showing dawn on Mars, featuring sunlight illuminating ancient rock formations in Gale Crater. The car-sized rover captured the scene while climbing Mount Sharp, a 5-kilometer-tall mountain within the crater, approximately an hour after sunrise. Planetary scientist Ashwin Vasavada explains that the distant peaks are likely wind-carved sediment layers from…
Nasa releases striking image of dawn on Mars →NASA's Curiosity rover has captured an image showing dawn over wind-carved cliffs on Mars. The picture was taken at 8:30 am local Mars time and features sunlight illuminating jagged crags formed billions of years ago. These crags, known as yardangs, are rock layers that scientists believe were once sediment hardened by wind erosion into ridges. Curiosity, which landed in Gale Crater in 2012, is currently climbing…
NASA's Curiosity rover catches stunning Martian dawn →NASA's Curiosity rover has captured an image showing dawn breaking over the Martian landscape, revealing ancient rock formations in Gale Crater near Mars' equator. The photo highlights wind-carved cliffs known as yardangs, which are believed to have formed about three billion years ago due to wind erosion after volcanic activity deposited sediment there. Planetary scientist Ashwin Vasavada describes these features…
