The geometric patterns, each measuring roughly 1.5 to 3 inches wide, have been spotted by Curiosity before, but never at this scale. The rover captured a full 360-degree panorama of the formation on June 19th and 20th, during Martian sols 4,930 and 4,931. Project scientist Ashwin Vasavada noted that the team has been actively studying the unusual terrain. The discovery marks a significant find in understanding the geological history of the Martian surface.
