Royer C, Bedford C, Johnson J, Horgan B, Broz A, Forni O, et al.
Commun Earth Environ . 2024 Nov; 5(1):671. PMID: 39525698
The NASA rover discovered light-toned float rocks scattered across the surface of Jezero crater that are particularly rich in alumina ( ~ 35 wt% AlO) and depleted in other major...

Clave E, Beyssac O, Bernard S, Royer C, Lopez-Reyes G, Schroder S, et al.
Sci Rep . 2024 May; 14(1):11284. PMID: 38760365
Planetary exploration relies considerably on mineral characterization to advance our understanding of the solar system, the planets and their evolution. Thus, we must understand past and present processes that can...

Murdoch N, Stott A, Gillier M, Hueso R, Lemmon M, Martinez G, et al.
Nat Commun . 2022 Dec; 13(1):7505. PMID: 36513637
Dust devils (convective vortices loaded with dust) are common at the surface of Mars, particularly at Jezero crater, the landing site of the Perseverance rover. They are indicators of atmospheric...

Liu Y, Tice M, Schmidt M, Treiman A, Kizovski T, Hurowitz J, et al.
Science . 2022 Aug; 377(6614):1513-1519. PMID: 36007094
The geological units on the floor of Jezero crater, Mars, are part of a wider regional stratigraphy of olivine-rich rocks, which extends well beyond the crater. We investigated the petrology...

Farley K, Stack K, Shuster D, Horgan B, Hurowitz J, Tarnas J, et al.
Science . 2022 Aug; 377(6614):eabo2196. PMID: 36007009
The Perseverance rover landed in Jezero crater, Mars, to investigate ancient lake and river deposits. We report observations of the crater floor, below the crater's sedimentary delta, finding that the...

Nature . 2022 Apr; 605(7911):653-658. PMID: 35364602
Before the Perseverance rover landing, the acoustic environment of Mars was unknown. Models predicted that: (1) atmospheric turbulence changes at centimetre scales or smaller at the point where molecular viscosity...

Mangold N, Gupta S, Gasnault O, Dromart G, Tarnas J, Sholes S, et al.
Science . 2021 Oct; 374(6568):711-717. PMID: 34618548
Observations from orbital spacecraft have shown that Jezero crater on Mars contains a prominent fan-shaped body of sedimentary rock deposited at its western margin. The Perseverance rover landed in Jezero...
