NASA scientists are set to explore a unique formation on Mars known as 'boxwork', which resembles vast spiderweb patterns shaped by ancient groundwater mineral deposits.
The boxwork, ranging from six to twelve miles in length, offers an unprecedented opportunity to study Martian geology and its historical interactions with water.
Located in the shadow of Mount Sharp in Gale Crater, this formation is distinct from Earth varieties, providing potential insight into ancient microbial life on Mars.
Curiosity rover's upcoming mission aims to provide the first close-up observations of this mysterious structure, promising significant revelations about Mars' geological past.
