Curiosity Rover Finds a Clay Cache on Mars

COSMIC MESSAGE

The Curiosity rover found high concentrations of clay in Gale Crater, Mars, evidence that the area once held water. On Earth, clay forms in the presence of water, often at the bottom of lakes. This selfie, a composite of 57 images from Curiosity's robotic arm camera, shows the rover at the drilling site where the clay was discovered.
