In fact, this particular rock may even be one of a kind. It was discovered by NASA's Perseverance rover exploring the Jezero Crater on Mars, and we've never seen anything like it up there on the red planet.

Last week, team scientists and the internet alike were amazed when Perseverance spotted a black-and-white striped rock unlike any seen on Mars before. Is this a sign of exciting discoveries to come?

Scientists are puzzling over a strange dark and light striped Mars rock snapped by NASA's Perseverance rover. So far, its origins are unknown.

NASA’S Perseverance Rover has found an intriguing black-and-white striped rock that the space agency says is “unlike any seen on Mars before”. The stone, dubbed ‘Freya

The reason scientists want the rover to explore the rim in the first place is for its potential to be littered with ancient Martian bedrock rubble. Jezero Crater formed when something substantial smacked into Mars billions of years ago. The impact could have churned up and tossed deep materials to the surface.

Freya Castle is believed to be a metamorphic rock, which if true could give more detailed information about Mars' volcanic past.

Perseverance's recent journey on Mars has led to the discovery of a striking black-and-white striped rock named 'Freya Castle', generating buzz among scientists and online communities alike. As the rover ascends the steep slopes of the crater rim,

While climbing a crater rim, NASA's Perseverance Mars rover spotted a curious striped rock that may have rolled from farther uphill, hinting at treasures the robotic explorer has yet to find.

Scientists are excited about the latest discovery of the Perseverance rover. The Martian vehicle on the Red Planet found a striped rock that didn't fit its surroundings at all. This gives hope for the future.
