Dated the day this page was built. The link always leads to this event, even after the stories are regrouped.
Nasa has released a striking image of dawn on the Martian surface taken by its Curiosity rover, showing sunlight bathing jagged crags formed billions of years ago as the car-sized vehicle continues to explore Earth’s planetary neighbour.
What happened
The outlets' own sentences, most widely reported first. Hover one for who reported it.
Curiosity landed in 2012 in Gale Crater near the Martian equator, and since 2014 has been climbing Mount Sharp, a 5km-tall (3-mile-tall) mountain rising from the crater floor.
The image was taken by the six-wheeled rover’s Mastcam camera about an hour after the sun rose above a landscape featuring wind-carved cliffs in the distance.
The yardang layer most likely formed about 3 billion years ago, around the same time as the rest of the mountain, according to Vasavada.
