Curiosity is exploring Mars’ boxwork terrain, where ridges and hollows may have formed from cementation and erosion. The rover has been documenting rock textures and chemistry, comparing smoother ridge rocks with nodular hollow-edge rocks. Scientists are weighing drill sites while also monitoring dust, clouds, and long-distance features across Gale Crater.
