Mars Curiosity Rover Team Looks Back at “Flower”, Looks Ahead to Drilling

This image of an outcrop at the “Sheepbed” locality, taken by NASA's Curiosity Mars rover with its right MastCam on December 13, show well-defined veins filled with whitish minerals, interpreted as calcium sulfate. These veins form when water circulates through fractures, depositing minerals along the sides of the fracture, to form a vein. This is Curiosity's first close look at minerals that formed within water that percolated within a subsurface environment. (Photo by NASA)
