NASA’s Perseverance Rover Makes Unprecedented Discovery of Bizarre ‘Freya Castle’ Rock on Mars | UAP

NASA’s Perseverance Rover has made a striking new discovery—a black-and-white striped rock on the Martian surface dubbed “Freya Castle,” unlike anything previously seen on the Red Planet. 

This unique find has sparked excitement among scientists and space enthusiasts, offering a fresh puzzle in the ongoing quest to understand Mars’ geological history.

“Team scientists and the internet alike were amazed when Perseverance spotted a black-and-white striped rock unlike any seen on Mars before,”  Athanasios Klidaras, a Perseverance team member and doctoral student at Purdue University, wrote in an update published by NASA. “Is this a sign of exciting discoveries to come?”

The rock, measuring around 20 centimeters across, was spotted on September 13, 2024, during the rover’s ongoing mission in the Jezero Crater. While Mars is famous for its characteristic red hue, this new rock discovery, nicknamed “Freya Castle,” stands out in its black-and-white coloring and pattern, resembling the “tiger stripe” camouflage some militaries wear. 

The unique stone was first detected using Perseverance’s Left Mastcam-Z camera while the rover was traversing the Jezero Crater’s rocky terrain. Perseverance’s Mastcam-Z system is a pair of high-tech cameras mounted on the rover’s mast, used to capture detailed images of the Martian…
